TEACHER OF MATHEMATICS:
SECONDARY LEVEL
The concentration in the teaching of
mathematics at the secondary level is intended for students who wish to turn
their enjoyment of mathematics into their life's work. Students choosing this
concentration will graduate both with a mathematics major and with all the
courses required for certification as a teacher at the junior high, middle, and
secondary senior high school levels. Their primary advisor will normally be from
the School of Education, but they are encouraged to discuss their programs with
mathematical sciences department faculty as well.
