The purpose of the program leading to the degree of Master of Science in Mathematics for Teaching is to improve the quality of mathematics instruction and to offer a response to the shortage of community college mathematics teachers. This degree program is offered on an accelerated basis primarily during intensive weekend sessions and may be taken at the rate of two courses per quarter. However, students may proceed through the program at a slower pace depending upon their individual needs. The emphasis in the program is on mathematical content, but significant amounts of time are spent on methods of incorporating new teaching strategies and technologies in the classroom. The program is tied directly to community college curriculum needs and is directed toward bachelor's degree holders in other fields who wish to enter teaching.???? The same readmission standards outlined in the Graduate Student Handbook and approval of the program director are observed for students in these programs. No more than two graduate courses (8 quarter credit hours or the semester equivalent) may be transferred from another DePaul program or institution provided that they are equivalent to courses offered in DePaul's graduate program, and they did not count toward another degree from DePaul or another institution. Written approval must come from graduate program director and associate dean for graduate studies.
