SECONDARY TEACHING LICENSE (GRADES 6-12)
The U of U's secondary teacher education program, in partnership with public education, provides the foundation and experience to work with Utah's students in communities from urban to rural, across age and ability levels, and from diverse cultural, linguistic, and socioeconomic backgrounds. Because our teacher education program is part of a research university, students experience a range of practical and research-informed opportunities by some of the leading educational scholars in the world. Our location in a diverse metropolitan provides excellent opportunities for time in classrooms and in the community!
