Middle Grades STEM

About

Overview Program OverviewThe University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC) offers the Bachelor of Science in Middle Grades STEM in response to the critical shortage declared by the Maryland State Department of Education (MSDE) of middle grades (4-9) teachers in mathematics in science and the call by the University System of Maryland (USM) 10-year strategic plan (“Powering Maryland Forward”) to “triple the number of STEM teachers graduating from USM institutions.” With only 41% of teachers in Maryland being prepared in-state, the proposed degree is timely and uniquely prepares graduates for employment in this critical occupational growth area. No other institution of higher education in Maryland offers a Middle Grades STEM degree.

UMBC Middle Grades STEM degree was developed in collaboration with University of Maryland Baltimore County’s Biology, Chemistry, Physics, and Mathematics departments along with its College of Engineering and Information Technology to ensure that the program includes in-depth understanding of all STEM content areas.
