The Bachelor of Science Degree in Mathematics-Secondary Education adequately prepares students to teach mathematics at the secondary level. Students gain a thorough foundation of mathematics, both in content and practice, and a comprehensive understanding of educational pedagogy and instructional methods.

Requirements for the Bachelor of Science Degree in Mathematics-Secondary Education

The University requirements for bachelor's degrees as described in the Undergraduate Education section of this catalog; 120 credits, including general elective credits, are required for the Bachelor of Science degree in Mathematics-Secondary Education.

The University's Tier II writing requirement for the Mathematics-Secondary Education major is met by completing Mathematics 309 and 396. Those courses are referenced in item 3. below.

Students may substitute Teacher Education 101 and 102 for two ISS requirements.

Students may substitute Teacher Education 341 for one IAH requirement.

The requirements of the College of Natural Science for the Bachelor of Science degree.
