Courses are offered in mathematics education for prospective elementary and secondary teachers. Copies of program requirements are available in the mathematics department office.The Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics has three concentrations:

• Liberal Arts
• Teaching
• Advanced Study

The Liberal Arts concentration is for students who desire a broad liberal arts education with an emphasis in mathematics.

The Teaching concentration is for students whose goal is to teach mathematics in middle school or high school. These students will obtain a solid understanding of the mathematics needed for teaching and classroom experience as volunteers in local public schools. They will also have the opportunity to develop the mathematical skills, flexibility, and perceptiveness to help future students cultivate fruitful wonderful ideas, and to help students connect their thinking to formal mathematical structures. Students who complete this concentration will have satisfied the early field experience requirement and the subject matter competency requirement for a single subject credential in mathematics.
