Register for an Upcoming Information Session
Mathematics teachers are inquisitive, analytical, and logical, and they foster these same qualities in their students. They possess a natural inclination for identifying similarities and differences in groups and for solving problems. They are trained to follow procedures, break problems down into their component parts, and arrive at exact answers.
This 23-credit certificate is available only to students pursuing a BA or BS in mathematics. Students who complete both the bachelor's degree and this certificate will be eligible for initial Virginia licensure in secondary education 6–12 with an endorsement in mathematics.
