For more information how to add this program as a concurrent degree, students should contact the Mary Lou Fulton Teachers College advising office. The BAE program in secondary education prepares educators to teach youth enrolled in grades 6-12. While teacher candidates develop a strong theoretical background in their specific content areas, the program focuses on developing the skills and teaching abilities required to successfully teach middle or high school students. This program also offers a full, structured English immersion endorsement to work with English language learners and provides extensive experiences in integrating technology into teaching. In order to integrate teacher preparation with the secondary education requirements for an academic specialization, the Mary Lou Fulton Teachers College collaborates with academic departments across the university. Secondary education certification is offered in the following content areas, depending on campus location: biological sciences, chemistry, earth and space sciences, economics, English, French, geography, German, history, Japanese, mathematics, physical education, physics, political science and Spanish.
