SECONDARY MATH PROGRAM SUMMARY

A career as a math teacher is a career that can make a difference in the world. The 4 year-licensure program at the University of Utah provides graduates with the foundation in both content and pedagogy. As a math teacher, you will help influence students' perceptions of the world during one of the most critical periods of their lives. You will have the abilities - and the responsibility to help your students gain the necessary tools, skills, and knowledge base that can lead to an extraordinary future rather than an ordinary one. Fortunately, there is a Utah teacher-education program that prepares you to build a foundation that will make a difference.
