Students pursuing a mathematics education degree gain the skills to teach a comprehensive curriculum to diverse learners in grades 5-12 with innovative approaches and self-assurance. As the fundamental language of scientific and technological advancement, mathematics stands as humanity's most ancient and refined field of study, positioning it among the most dynamic and fulfilling academic pursuits for modern times. Prospective math educators should maintain close consultation with their advisors to ensure general education requirements establish a robust base for upper-level coursework in the major.
Education students can register for 300-level teaching methodology classes before official acceptance into the School of Education (SOE). Before advancing to 400-level courses, candidates must submit their SOE application, maintain an overall GPA of at least 2.75 across all subjects and education classes, and either pass the Core Academic Skills for Educators exam or achieve benchmark ACT scores.
