Overview

Students are able to directly put into practice skills and knowledge learned throughout their coursework during their student teaching, the culminating experience in a pre-service teacher’s academic program of study. This provides an opportunity for teacher candidates to practice and refine their knowledge and skills under the supervision and guidance of cooperating teachers and UWSP science faculty who have dedicated their careers to science education and mentorship.

Successful candidates in the Bachelor of Natural Science Education program at the University of Wisconsin - Stevens Point earn a bachelor's degree and Wisconsin teaching licenses in one or more area of science. Specific licenses earned depend on the major, minor and concentration completed.

Career Opportunities

Students are immersed in a curriculum that emphasizes an inquiry-based approach and best practices in science education as well as a broad exposure to all scientific disciplines with a deep understanding of its intricacies. Students have opportunities to collaborate with faculty through independent, authentic scientific research, think critically about scientific conventions and how scientific disciplines are intertwined, and utilize state-of-the-art equipment throughout their course work.
