MATHEMATICS EDUCATION (MAED)

MAED courses offered by the Department of Mathematics are intended primarily for students seeking teacher licensure, license renewal, or license upgrading. These courses may not be used to satisfy the requirements for a major or minor in Mathematics. They may be accepted as non‑math electives for B.A. and B.S. degrees in Mathematics and for the M.A. in mathematics education.
