Secondary STEM Education: M.S., 4+1

The M.S. in Secondary STEM Education degree will provide the training and experience to teach middle and high school STEM subjects in diverse and inclusive settings. It is a one-year program that leads to institutional recommendation for certification in grades 7-12 in agriscience, biology, chemistry, earth science, integrated science, physics, physical science, mathematics, or technology education. The degree is open to the following majors: biology, chemistry, earth science, agricultural and veterinary sciences, physics, mathematics, or engineering fields. Students who complete the requirements are eligible for institutional recommendation for teacher certification in their disciplines.
