Master of Science in Teaching or MST (Earth Science) Program
The Department of Earth & Environmental Sciences offers
the degree of Master of Science in Teaching (Earth Science) to
students possessing a Bachelor of Arts or a Bachelor of Science degree from
a recognized institution. The Master of Science in Teaching (Earth Science)
program prepares a student for teaching Earth Science at K-12 level. Since
students come to the program with a broad spectrum of experience, their courses
of study are designed on an individual basis.
The MST program can lead to teaching certification
in Earth Science; however, the College of Education and Human Services approves
applications for certification. If you are interested in receiving certification,
contact the College of Education & Human Services for a review of transcripts
and course requirements for certification.
