Overview

What You'll Learn

Mathematics Education students at Western Carolina University take courses focused on how to teach mathematical concepts and teacher leadership in a diverse society as well as core courses including calculus, logic and proof, statistical methods, discrete structures and linear algebra. They complete internships and student teaching with mentorship from dedicated, experienced teachers and guidance from WCU faculty. A Mathematics Tutoring Center offers drop-in assistance, access to a library of textbooks and space for study sessions. Students also are encouraged to conduct research and have presented their work at conferences of the Mathematical Association of America and the North Carolina Council of Teachers of Mathematics. In addition, students make personal and professional connections in WCU’s Math Club and a student group affiliated with a state mathematics teachers organization.
