Teacher Certification in 物理

Students completing either the B.A. 或B.S. physics major have two options to receive certification to teach physics in grades 8-12 in Texas through 赌博娱乐平台网址大全’s Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT) program. Students can pursue (1) the Grades 8-12 物理/Mathematics certification, which would enable a graduate to teach physics and mathematics or (2) the Grades 8-12 Physical Science certification, which would enable a graduate to teach physics as well as chemistry and 8th grade general science (this would require coursework in chemistry and geosciences in addition to the physics major). Both options require undergraduate education coursework as preparation for entry into the MAT program and to fulfill state requirements. Students who complete 赌博娱乐平台网址大全’s 5 year Teacher Education Program will earn both a Bachelor’s degree in 物理 and Master of Arts in Teaching as well as teacher certification. For more information and specific requirements,包括 middle school and elementary science teaching opportunities as well, see the Education Department’s program description in the course catalog.
