Bachelor of Science in Secondary Teacher Education

The secondary teacher education program at the University of Michigan now offers first-year admission in addition to the option to transfer in as a junior (either across campus or from a different college or university). Secondary teacher education also offers an option to add teacher certification to your degree while remaining in your U-M school or college. Secondary teacher education’s three-term program prepares students to teach middle and high school grades with secondary teacher certification through the State of Michigan. Students select an initial (primary) endorsement area and may also choose to (optionally) pursue an additional endorsement to broaden their range of career options. As a prospective secondary teacher, also called a “teaching intern,” you get the opportunity to teach subjects about which you have a deep understanding.
