For the Bachelor of Arts degree in Mathematics Education, a student must pass the following:
Lower-division Courses (13 units)
Offered once or twice a year
Choose one of the following (5-7 units):
| PHYS 210 | Physics I | 5 units |
or
| CHEM 120 | General Chemistry I | 3 units |
| CHEM 120L | General Chemistry I Lab | 1 unit |
| CHEM 121 | General Chemistry II | 3 units |
Sophomore upper-division courses (8 units)
Offered once a year
Junior/Senior upper-division courses (4 units)
Offered once every 2 years
Select three additional upper-division courses (10-12 units)
Offered once every 2 years
Others may be available occasionally
Required Teacher Education classes (20 units)
| EDUC 351 | Child Development | 4 units |
| EDUC 561 | The Teaching-Learning Process | 4 units |
| EDUC 562 | The School and Society | 4 units |
| EDUC 564S | Reading and Language Arts in Content Areas--Single Subject | 4 units |
| EDUC 570 | Methods of Content Area Instruction in English for Cross-Cultural Settings | 4 units |
In order to earn a California teaching credential, students will be required to pass the CSET Single-Subject Mathematics Exam and complete their student teaching requirement (EDUC 566, EDUC 581, EDUC 582, EDUC 583). Students should refer to teh Teacher Education Professional Sequence Requirements listed in the Humanities and Teacher Education Division for more information.
Recommended schedule for first two years:
| Year | Fall | Spring |
|
|
|
| 1st | Calculus I | Calculus II |
| | Comp. Sci. 105 | Colloquium |
|
|
|
| 2nd | Calculus III | Trans. to Abstr. Math |
| | Linear Algebra | |
|
|
|
Or if entering with AP Calculus credit:
| Year | Fall | Spring |
|
|
|
| 1st | Calculus II | Calculus III |
| | Comp. Sci. 105 | Colloquium |
|
|
|
| 2nd | Physics I | Trans. to Abstr. Math |
| | Linear Algebra | Physics II |
|
|
|
Note that Math 360: Transitions to Abstract Mathematics, is a
prerequisite for all upper-division courses. Since upper-division
courses are offered every other year, students will generally need to
take some in their Junior, and some in their Senior year. For this
reason, it is extremely important for mathematics majors to take Math
360 during the Fall of their sophomore year if they hope to graduate in
four years.
