Welcome to UTeachTech!

The UTeachTech program is designed to nurture and train a new teaching force of highly qualified instructors in STEM subjects — science, technology, engineering, and math. Sponsored by the College of Education, the College of Arts and Natural Sciences, and the College of Engineering and Sciences, UTeachTech provides an opportunity for undergraduate students majoring in Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics, Computer Science, or Engineering to receive both their subject matter degree and full teaching certification in four years at no extra cost.

UTeach in the News

Does UTeach train great teachers? Research says yes!  One study found that, compared to traditionally trained teachers, UTeach graduates "...produce as much as four months of additional learning in math and nearly six months of additional learning in science. For high school algebra and biology, the difference in student outcomes for UTeach and non-UTeach teachers is larger than the difference in outcomes between new teachers and what we typically see after a teacher has ten years of experience!"
