The Master of Arts in Teaching in Science Education degree program equips students with the content knowledge and pedagogical expertise needed to teach science in elementary, middle, and high school classrooms. Developed by top-tier faculty at The University of Texas at Dallas, the program's courses are hands-on and inquiry-based and designed with science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) teachers in mind, providing students with fundamental skills in cognition, education research and assessment. A thesis option exists for those who wish to pursue doctoral level research.
The Science Education program is designed for those with significant ability in a science discipline and a serious commitment to teaching. The program's curriculum teaches effective pedagogical practices, trains students in the skillful evaluation of educational strategies and provides forward-looking opportunities for professional development for both new and experienced teachers alike. The program may be completed in conjunction with the UTeach Dallas secondary STEM teacher preparation program and/or with other STEM content graduate programs at the university.
