IB/M Critical Shortage Areas Second Application Option – March 1 to April 1, 2021
Interested in the possibility of a career in teaching? You are invited to apply for the Integrated Bachelor’s/Master’s Program in teacher education at UConn’s Neag School, in several subject areas.
The Connecticut State Department of Education has designated several teacher education certification areas as critical shortage areas. Currently, these are:
- secondary mathematics
- secondary science
- special education and
- world languages
If we do not receive sufficient applications in a specific critical shortage area major, we accept applications for those areas beginning on March 1, 2021.
This year, applications for secondary mathematics, secondary science (biology, chemistry, earth science, general science, physics), special education, and world languages (American Sign Language, French, German, Mandarin Chinese, Spanish) will be considered if submitted by April 1. Please note, students can apply only once per academic year to a given shortage area major.
