Through its Urban Teacher Education Program (UTEP), the Department
of Urban Education prepares teacher candidates to teach in racially,
ethnically, economically, and linguistically diverse urban secondary
schools. Students major in one of the following disciplines, while
enrolled in UTEP: English, mathematics, science (biology, chemistry,
geology, environmental sciences, or physics), social studies (history),
and world language (Spanish or Portuguese). Currently, only secondary
teacher certification is offered through UTEP. Interested students
should review the additional information, including application and
admissions requirements, found in the Urban Education 300 section of this catalog or online at http://www.ncas.rutgers.edu/urbaned.
