Our M.A. in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) Education offers the unique opportunity for students who have undergraduate degrees in mathematics, engineering, or the sciences to pursue an initial New Jersey teaching certificate in mathematics and/or the sciences and a Master's degree simultaneously. We prepare our students for successful careers as highly-skilled teachers in one of our concentrations - mathematics or science.
Our program is carefully designed such that all coursework has a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) focus that provides the ideal pedagogical preparation for prospective mathematics or science teachers in the K-12 setting.
This 13-month program includes an early field experience; face-to-face, online, and hybrid courses; and a yearlong teacher residency. The culminating experience is a seminar in which students transition from teacher candidate to teacher by planning for leading their own classrooms. The M.A. in STEM Education is offered through Rowan University's CAEP Accredited College of Education.
Teachers in the state of New Jersey may apply to the M.A. in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathmatics program through the New Jersey Teacher Outreach Program (NJTOP®). For more information about NJTOP, click here.
