The Science Education program at Boston University Wheelock College of Education & Human Development gives educators the tools they need to teach biology, chemistry, general science, or physics in secondary settings. Students will be immersed in science content and pedagogy as they prepare to be effective teachers and leaders in science education. Once they graduate, they will be ready to design, teach, and supervise science programs for all ages, from elementary school to college. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Science Education students have access to a wide range of Boston University resources that will enhance their learning about topics such as classroom leadership, curriculum development, assessment strategies, and more. Along with coursework at BU Wheelock, students can take elective courses from BU’s College of Arts & Sciences. Students will also be part of a scholarly community that places a strong emphasis on social justice, equity, and inclusion. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Boston University’s Science Education program offers several options for science educators, including a Master of Education (EdM), Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT), and certificate programs for biology, chemistry, and physics.
