The graduate program in Middle Grades Education equips students to teach grades 4 through 8. Educators specializing in middle school math and science are especially needed, with growing opportunities in Pennsylvania and nationwide. Our College of Education and Human Development curriculum develops teachers who are both skilled in instructional methods and dedicated to serving diverse pre-adolescent populations across cultural, socioeconomic, and regional contexts. This program addresses critical teacher shortages by cultivating expertise in subject-specific teaching strategies that meet rigorous academic standards while supporting middle schoolers' varied developmental stages.
