The Bachelor of Science in Middle School Math and Science Education program at the University of Maryland College Park College of Education is designed to prepare future educators for dual certification in mathematics and science for grades 4-9. The curriculum integrates specialized mathematics (problem solving, numbers and operations, algebra, geometry, statistics, probability) and science (physics, chemistry, biology, earth and atmospheric sciences) coursework with foundational education classes such as pedagogy, adolescent development, equity, and diversity. Hands-on experiences, including classroom observation and a year-long teaching internship, are essential components. The program adheres closely to standards set by the State of Maryland and the Association for Middle Level Education (AMLE), ensuring graduates are qualified for Maryland certification and those states participating in the Interstate Reciprocity Agreement. 来源： https://education.umd.edu/academics/programs/undergraduate/middle-school-education-mathematics-and-science-concentration-bs
