Transition to Teaching is a nationally-recognized program for students wishing to teach in a STEM field, this program provides a $ 5000. fellowship and requires a 3 year commitment to teach in a Title One school. Questions about these pathways should be addressed to the Program Director Etta Kralovec, or to Carol Lehman, the Faculty Support Associate.

Classes are offered online with occasional face-to-face meetings. No thesis is required for this degree, but students must complete a participant-action research project designed to develop an inquiry stance to carry forward into a teaching career.
