Science Education offers the Science: Middle Level Education BA for endorsement in middle school science (grades 4-9). See description and requirements below.
Why should you choose to major in Middle Level Science Teaching?
This major pairs especially well with the Mathematics: Middle Level Education BA and the STEM Teaching Program minor.
This major partially satisfies the criteria for a teaching endorsement in Middle Level Science (4-9), qualifying students to teach science at the middle school or junior high levels. It may also be appropriate for students preparing to teach in informal science education settings, such as museums. Students who successfully complete the Science: Middle Level Education, BA and STEM Teaching Program Minor (an alternative to the Professional Education Program) are eligible to apply for Washington State teacher certification. Teacher certification candidates must receive a C grade or higher in all major and STEM Teaching Program courses, have a GPA of at least 3.0 for either the last 45 graded quarter credits or overall CWU/transfer cumulative, and meet all Washington State teacher certification requirements. See the middle level science and STEM Teaching advisors as soon as possible to develop a course of study.
