The Senior Integrated Assessment is administered in MATH 4391, Mathematics Seminar. The exit examination for mathematics majors is the Graduate Record Examination Subject Area Test in Mathematics. Students may consult the Department Head for the required score. Freshman and sophomore level mathematics courses will not count as electives. The Mathematics Education degree program prepares students for careers as mathematics educators or mathematicians.
Graduates are prepared to teach high school mathematics through the first course in calculus.
Demonstrate the ability to explain mathematical concepts appropriately to various age groups, and to design and implement lesson plans to achieve learning gains in mathematics for diverse learners at the secondary level. Students earn a passing grade only if they earn a passing score on the final examinations in these courses. Additionally, all students in the mathematics education program are required to complete successfully a full semester of Student Teaching, SEDM 4359. 3 Civil or Mechanical Engineering students will take ENGG 2123 and ENGG 2133 sequences.
