Mathematics Teaching Minor, Elementary & Middle-Level

31-34 hours; 2.75 minor GPA required

The elementary and middle-level mathematics minor builds on the elementary education mathematics minor and reflects more depth of content designed to strengthen the prospective teachers’ understanding of mathematics and broaden their understanding of mathematical connections between grade levels. The elementary and middle-level mathematics minor is designed to prepare students for the state-mandated licensure exam for middle-level mathematics.  The minor does not automatically extend certification to the middle grades.
