Bachelor of Science - Mathematics - Secondary Education

The major in mathematics with a concentration in secondary education will prepare students to teach in both middle schools and in high schools. While completing this degree, students develop problem-solving and critical thinking skills and are introduced to the logical and historical development of mathematical ideas. Students also learn the professional skills in teaching methods and content necessary for secondary mathematics teachers. Nationally recommended curriculum guidelines are followed in order to ensure that graduates have the mathematical content and conceptual understanding necessary for all high school mathematics courses. Graduates from this program are in demand both locally and statewide with the scarcity of mathematics teachers.
