    About

    Overview Key FeaturesThe facilities available in physics at UMS include the state-of-the art instrumentation of the Center for Nanoscience, where you will find advanced equipment for such specialized areas as x-ray crystallography and atom-scale microscopy. The St. Louis Area benefits from a particularly strong association of physics teachers, with which UMSL has an excellent relationship.The Secondary Education - Physics (9-12) program from University of Missouri–St. Louis provide the research-based approaches for teaching effectively. Area schools and organizations such as the Saint Louis Science Center offer excellent opportunities for working with students while learning to teach. Enrolling in the College of Education teacher preparation program actively and uniquely engages you throughout your studies in working with secondary students as they learn and develop in informal and formal learning settings. The College of Education recognizes that we prepare educators for a variety of roles and a variety of contexts (i.e. P-12 schools, youth serving organizations, museums, zoos, gardens, nature centers, after school programs, tutoring/mentoring programs, businesses, legislative offices, etc.) all of which impact student learning. We want to prepare community educators as well as P-12 classroom teachers who can provide relevance, application, and meaning to student learning in developmentally, socially, and culturally responsive ways. As a teacher candidate, you will work with students in youth serving agencies to support them in non-traditional settings. You will also gain valuable practical knowledge by applying university course content to interactions with young learners in academically focused content-based community agencies such the St. Louis Chess Club, Powder Valley, and many United Way agencies.
    If you enjoy physics and engineering and like to work with young people, consider a career as a physics teacher. The Secondary Education - Physics (9-12) program from University of Missouri–St. Louis will prepare you for a career in the classroom.
