Mathematics Education Certificate

The Certificate in Mathematics Education is a 24-credit graduate program designed to support individuals who already possess a bachelor’s degree and want to teach middle level mathematics, grades 4-8, or secondary mathematics, grades 7-12.  The program director and faculty team will conduct a thorough review for each applicant and will require additional course work if candidates do not meet required course work that matches our BSED in Mathematics Education at IUP.

The IUP MACS department already offers a Master’s in Education degree in Mathematics Education with specializations in elementary/middle level mathematics or secondary mathematics. The Certificate in Mathematics Education can be added to this existing program allowing program candidates to earn their teaching credentials and a master’s degree.  This offers more options and flexibility for graduate students that are both time and cost effective.
