Teacher Education Programs

The College of Arts and Sciences offers B.A. and M.A. degree programs for secondary school teachers and the M.A. degree for junior college teachers.

B.A. Degree Program for Secondary School Teachers

The College of Arts and Sciences in cooperation with the College of Education offers degree programs in Mathematics (MAE), in Biology (NSB), in Chemistry (NSC), in Physics (NSP) and in Social Science Education (SSE). Because requirements exist in both colleges, a student will have an advisor in each college. At the outset, the student’s advisor in the College of Arts and Sciences must approve the planned courses in mathematics and science.

There are two options available to the student to satisfy the science portion of the program:

1. The student may complete the requirements of the departmental major. The departmental requirements of Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics, and Physics are found in this section of this catalog under the respective headings in Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics, and Physics.

2. The student may complete requirements of the Interdisciplinary Natural Sciences major with concentration in Biology, Chemistry, Physics, and Mathematics. A complete description of this major is found in this section of this catalog under the heading Interdisciplinary Natural Sciences.

Prospective students should consult the College of Education portions of this catalog under the heading "Science Education (SCE)" or "Social Science Education (SSE)" for the required education courses and sample programs.
