Boston University’s Mathematics Education program helps develop expertise in fundamental mathematical concepts and processes, the development of mathematics curriculum materials, and teaching methods applicable to a variety of age levels, interests, and aptitudes.

The undergraduate program leads to an initial teaching license in mathematics for grades 1-6, 5-8, or 8-12. The School of Education offers both professional preparation for teaching, including extensive fieldwork, and substantial coursework in mathematics and/or computer science. Specialty programs in the teaching of mathematics are available for students who are seeking an initial teaching license as an elementary or special education teacher. After completion of the appropriate program, graduates are qualified to teach mathematics, to act as mathematics resource leaders in team-teaching situations, and to organize and manage mathematics resource areas.

Qualified undergraduates in Mathematics Education may seek dual degrees with the College of Arts and Sciences through the Boston University Collaborative Degree Program.
