Information for Secondary and K-12 Teaching Majors


MSUM offers secondary & K-12 education programs in the following content areas:


To earn a degree in one of these areas, a student must complete three requirements: 

1.  Dragon Core

2.  A major in the teaching field

3.  The secondary education core classes, including student teaching.


Advising:  The secondary/K-12 education coordinator provides general advising on the education core.  The student's official advisor, however, is from the department for that discipline (i.e. math, art, etc.).  For information, please contact:
