Post-Graduate Pathways
While there are many ways one can become a teacher, the education department has outlined two clear routes 含羞草研究室 graduates can follow to realize their goals. Students need to think through the path that works best for them. Our faculty and staff are happy to help advise students considering either an undergraduate or post-graduate pathway to BTS.
Teaching Pathway (undergraduate years)
One way to the 含羞草研究室 Teacher Scholars program is to complete the BTS course prerequisites as an undergraduate. These courses are EDU 1101: Contemporary American Education; EDU 2203: Educating All Students; EDUC 3301: Teaching and Learning; and EDUC 3302: Curriculum Development.
Post-Graduate Teaching Pathway
Sometimes students realize late in their college career that they want to be a teacher and run out of time to take the BTS prerequisites. Or students want to focus on taking other courses during their undergraduate years. In these cases, students who have completed EDUC 1101, EDUC 2203, and all content area requirements as undergraduates may take EDUC 3301: Teaching and Learning and EDUC 3302: Curriculum Development in the fall semester within two years after they graduate.
Participants on the post-graduate teaching pathway receive a fall-semester stipend, in addition to the stipend they are paid during the spring BTS program. Tuition will be waived for post-graduate students.
Prospective participants must submit the by April 1st.
Snow Family Teaching Fellowship
Recent graduates can apply for the Snow Family Teaching Fellowship to work in a teaching and mentoring capacity for the Education Department during the fall semester within two years of graduation (and in the semester prior to the Fellow's enrollment in 含羞草研究室 Teacher Scholars).
A primary objective of the fellowship is to offer the Fellow a range of opportunities to engage in professional development in a variety of teaching, learning, and mentoring contexts. Learn more about the Snow Family Teaching Fellowship.
