I believe the reason is because we're not training enough teachers who really know their discipline — teachers who are not just good at teaching math and science, but can inspire students to go into careers in these disciplines.

I wanted to start a program that would attract excellent math and science students to teaching as their first choice. Working closely with the College of Education and the Austin Independent School District, Dean Rankin brought together a group of experienced secondary teachers and administrators and asked them to design a teacher preparation program based on national standards, educational research, and their years of experience in the K—12 setting.

They have access to the latest research on learning and are prepared to use technology effectively in the classroom. Other hallmarks of the program include paid internships, early and continuing field experience, and the inclusion of master teachers that advise and mentor as part of the UTeach faculty. It changes the way you think about things. If you like it, you can continue in the UTeach Dallas program, where you can complete a degree in a STEM field and earn a secondary teaching certification.
