Students who have an undergraduate degree in mathematics or science or have extensive work experience in a field directly related to mathematics or science (i.e. engineering), may qualify for employment as a teacher while earning this degree

Through a combination of coursework and classroom apprenticeship, TEAM-AYA immerses students into the experience of teaching. The TEAM-AYA program is designed to be completed in 15 months.

Graduate students in TEAM-AYA live the experience of teaching side-by-side with a mentor teacher while learning the best theories and practices for teaching young children through a series of courses that meet state standards for licensure.
