How
does the AMAT program work?
Upon
admission, students interested in this option
will meet with advisors from the undergraduate
interdisciplinary studies program and the graduate
education program. Candidates pursue upper divisional
credits for the interdisciplinary studies degrees
concentrating on the content courses required
for teacher certification. At the same time,
admitted undergraduate students pursue up to
12 credits in graduate education course work
focusing on the foundations of teaching and
learning. Following the completion of the undergraduate
degree, candidates continue their program through
the Graduate Division of Education to complete
all requirements for the internship. At that
point, students must become full-time students
for one semester to complete an internship in
a K-12 school setting. At the completion of
the internship, individuals are ready for certification
and employment as teachers. The final course
in the program is designed to support graduating
students and assist them in their professional
growth during their first year of teaching.
