| Information for Prospective Mathematics Teachers |
| |
| We offer two distinct credential programs in Mathematics: Mathematics and Foundational Level Mathematics. The difference in these two credentials is based on how you establish subject matter competence and what levels of mathematics you are thus authorized to teach. Links below describe the scope of these credentials and how subject matter competence may be obtained. |
|
| Information for Prospective Science Teachers |
| We offer the credential program in Science for Biological Sciences, Chemistry, Geosciences, and Physics. Depending on how you establish subject matter competency, you may be qualified to teach in these areas and general/integrated science as well. The link below describes the scope of eight different science credentials and how subject matter competence may be obtained. |
