Program Description
The CSUEB Single Subject Matter Program in Foundational Mathematics includes a variety of courses intended to prepare students for a career as a middle school mathematics teacher. CSUEB’s Single Subject Matter Preparation Program in Foundational Mathematics yields a State Board of Education approved certification. The certification allows a student to waive taking the two required math California Subject Examinations for Teachers (CSETs). If a student subsequently wishes to complete a California Secondary Teaching Credential in Foundational-level Mathematics, in addition to the required mathematics courses, a year of education courses and practice teaching is required.
Thirty three (33) semester units are required in the Single Subject Matter Preparation Program in Foundational Mathematics.
