Minor in Teacher Education
An increasingly popular career choice for chemistry majors is teaching in secondary schools. Additional certificates in other subjects (such as Physics, Biology or Mathematics) can also be obtained during the usual four year undergraduate period. An Undergraduate Minor in Teacher Education is available to UB students in their senior year and is a two semester program of at least 27 credit hours.
The Minor in Teacher Education is administered through the “Teacher Education Institute” at UB and students interested in this program must apply directly through the TEI office located at 375 Baldy Hall, North Campus (645-2461) by February 1 st of the junior year. Applicants for the Minor in Teacher Education must have a 2.5 or greater GPA. Information about TEI can also be found on the web at http://www.gse.buffalo.edu/.
