Course Overview

There are four science subject areas that students can choose from: Biology, Chemistry, Earth Science, and Physics. The M.A.T. program is a state approved program for certification in Biology, Chemistry, and Physics, but not Earth Science. However, students who complete the M.A.T. with the concentration in Earth Science can apply directly to the State for certification. Students interested in certification in Earth Science should seek academic advising to identify how this impacts initial teacher certification and reciprocity with other states. Candidates for the Master of Arts in Teaching (M.A.T.) in Science Education should have a degree in a science discipline (e.g., biology, chemistry, physics, earth science) that is taught in a middle or high school, or a closely related field.

Concentrations:

  • Biology
  • Chemistry
  • Earth & Space Science
  • Physics
