The demand for qualified science and math teachers in today's technology based society is ever increasing. The chemistry education option will allow students to earn the B.S. in chemistry and then apply to the one year professional certification program offered through the School of Education. The option will also prepare students to enter the Master of Arts in Teaching Program (MAT) here at the University of Pittsburgh. Students also need to take the PRAXIS I: Reading, Writing, Mathematics exam prior to applying for admission to the certification program. Application forms are available in 5500 Posvar Hall.
