• The Master of Science degree in Mathematics Education program aims to fill the need to provide advanced preparation for certified mathematics teachers. Changes in societal demands brought about by advances in mathematics and technology, as well as sociocultural changes in the high school clientele make the continual re-tooling of mathematics teachers an absolute necessity.
  • Through a curriculum which combines rigorous mathematics content knowledge with advanced research-based pedagogy, the program seeks to produce a highly competent cadre of mathematics teachers who have the knowledge, skills, and attitudes to foster a high level of achievement in mathematics in high school students. This program will produce teachers who have a sound knowledge of the discipline, are skilled in facilitating learning, and have the competence to assess students' needs in mathematics and to modify their own instructional practices to meet those needs.
