Mathematics EducationUndergraduate Program InformationDoug Griffin, Undergraduate Coordinator (E-mail)
All students must meet the following minimum qualifications to apply: overall grade point average of 2.75, grade of C or better in MATH 2250, 2260, 3000, 3200, and documented completion at least 30 clock hours of tutoring students in the mathematics of grades 6-12 in a structured setting. All students meeting these requirements will then be ranked using the following formula: grade in MATH 2250 (Calculus I) x 5 + grade in MATH 2260 (Calculus II) x 5 + grade in MATH 3000 (Linear Algebra) x 5 + grade in MATH 3200 (Introduction to Higher Mathematics) x 5 + overall grade point average x 5. A minimum of 57.25 points is required to be considered for admission. Students who have at least 57.25 points will then be rank ordered, and the 25 students having the highest point totals will be admitted to the program each semester. In the event of a tie, we will admit 26 students. A student who has been admitted for a given semester and is unable to enroll due to an emergency will automatically be allowed into the next cohort s/he is able to join. Students can reapply as many times as they wish. Program Summary The Mathematics & Science Education Department at the University of Georgia offers a nationally accredited program preparing students to teach mathematics in secondary school (grades 6-12). The program emphasizes a blend of mathematical studies, professional studies, and practical experiences in schools. Students will be acquainted with the latest developments in curriculum and instruction, including instructional technology. Graduates of the program receive the Bachelor of Science in Education degree and are eligible for a initial certification in Georgia. The department also offers pre-service and in-service courses for students who specialize in middle school or elementary school education. The Program of Study: The Core Program (Freshman and Sophomore years) General Electives Six hours of general electives may be taken. Mathematics courses below MATH 1113 can only be used as electives.
