Mathematics for Secondary Education

Degree Options

Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science degrees with a major in mathematics for secondary education. Graduate programs leading to the Master of Science in Education and Master of Arts in Teaching degrees in mathematics also are available through the School of Education.

Description of Program

The focus of the program is to provide the necessary mathematics content and methods for students to become mathematics teachers at the middle school to high school level.

In addition to receiving this degree in the College of Arts and Sciences, students must also complete the secondary education major in the School of Education.  Students will learn theory and application of mathematics in a range of lower- and upper-level classes, as well teaching methodology appropriate for teaching at the secondary level.  In addition, students will learn how to use appropriate technology in teaching.

Requirements for Major

This major is designed to furnish students with the mathematics content necessary for secondary certification in mathematics; to teach secondary mathematics, students will also need to complete the secondary education major offered in the School of Education. Students must complete the following mathematics and related courses:

  • Mathematics 45 (Mathematics and Technology)
  • Mathematics 50, 70 (Calculus I, II)
  • Mathematics 54 (Introduction to Discrete Mathematics)
  • Mathematics 80 (Linear Algebra)
  • Mathematics 101 (Mathematical Reasoning)
  • Mathematics 144 (Topics for Mathematics Teaching)
  • Mathematics 145 (Methods of Teaching Secondary School Mathematics)
  • Mathematics 153 (Modern Geometry)
  • Mathematics 155 (Introduction to Abstract Algebra I)
  • Mathematics 157 (History of Mathematics)
  • Computer Science 65 (Introduction to Computer Science I)
  • One of the following: Statistics 71 — Statistics I OR Statistics 131 (Probability and Mathematical Statistics I)

The courses, Mathematics Tutoring (currently under the Mathematics 195 number) and Math 125 (Mathematical Modeling), are strongly recommended.

Requirements for Minor in Mathematics for Secondary Education

A student must have a departmental minor advisor and complete the following courses: Mathematics 50, 54, 70, 80, 101, 153, 157, Computer Science 65, and either Statistics 71 or Statistics 131. Mathematics 45 and Mathematics 145 are also recommended.
