Middle Tennessee State University is one of four Tennessee
universities selected to replicate the successful
UTeach
program of the
University of
Texas at Austin. Designed to increase the quantity
and quality of mathematics and science teachers in our state
and nation, MTeach begins with early field experiences for
students and includes subject-specific pedagogical coursework;
the program builds strong disciplinary and pedagogical
foundations, and culminates with ongoing professional
development support of new teachers. With introductory
courses led by Master Teachers from secondary education, and
advanced courses developed and taught by faculty from both the
College of Basic and Applied Sciences and the College of
Education, MTeach will change the way mathematics and science
teachers are educated in Tennessee.
