Overview

In just five years — instead of the six it would typically take — you’ll earn a BS in Biology, an MST in Adolescence Education, as well as your New York State Initial teaching certification.

You will learn from dedicated Biology and Education faculty, who have first-hand experience as scientists, researchers, teachers, principals, and school superintendents. They will become your mentors, field placement supervisors, career advisers, and advocates as they help you move successfully from our Iona University campus to a classroom of your own.

What You'll Learn

In this Biology and Adolescence Education program you will gain a deep understanding of biology and learn how to share your knowledge with students in grades 7-12. You will learn the practical skills of setting up and managing a classroom, developing and presenting effective lesson plans.

You will be pushed to think outside the box, learning concepts and ideas that will take you to the next level as a student, biologist and teacher.
