Jean A. Luckowski Chair

The Department of Curriculum and Instruction offers teacher education baccalaureate programs leading to certification/licensure for kindergarten through twelfth grade (K-12) levels. Master and doctoral degree candidates receive focused study and increased depth in selected specialty areas. Students at all levels are prepared for the profession of teaching by completing a coherent program that emphasizes teaching and learning in community. The program prepares professionals who are skilled in the creation of student-centered, active-learning environments within learning communities. Individual self-esteem, diversity, and the social, moral and cognitive development of children and youth is emphasized. Students experience an integrated curriculum. They formulate collaborative and community-building strategies that address social and academic diversity, encouraging the development of caring, contributing citizens.

Graduate Programs

The following degrees are offered: Master of Arts, Master of Education, and Doctor of Education. Both the Master of Arts and the Master of Education programs are offered in Curriculum and Instruction, with optional concentrations in elementary education, secondary education, reading, library-media services, special education, instructional design for technology, and curriculum studies.

Teaching, administrative, and/or other education-related experience is normally required prior to the completion of advanced degree programs. To receive a master's degree in elementary or secondary education, a minimum of two years of teaching experience is required. Selection of a course of study (area of emphasis, course work outside the field of education, and electives) must be made only after consultation with and the expressed approval of the student's advisor. Information about specific requirements and options is available from the School of Education. For more information refer to The University of Montana-Missoula Graduate Programs and Admissions Catalog.

Teacher Education

The Department of Curriculum and Instruction and the Teacher Education Council establish policies and standards for students within the Teacher Education Program. Students preparing to teach in elementary settings (kindergarten through eighth grade) or in business education will complete a major in education. Students intending to major in elementary education but who have not been admitted to the Teacher Education Program will be designated as pre-education majors. Upon admission to the Teacher Education Program, the student's major will become education with an elementary education emphasis.

Individuals preparing to teach in secondary settings (middle schools or senior high schools) must obtain a degree in a subject area they plan to teach and complete the requirements for a minor teaching field unless the chosen degree area qualifies as a single endorsement field. Students at both elementary and secondary levels must complete courses required for state certification/licensure and demonstrate teaching competency during their student teaching experiences.

To meet state teacher certification/licensure standards an applicant must:

• be at least 18 years of age,
• pass the Pre-Professional Skills Test (PPST) or the Computer Based Test (CBT), and
• satisfy course, credit and degree requirements as outlined below

Admission to Teacher Education

All students seeking certification/ licensure or a degree in education apply for admission to the Teacher Education Program prior to enrolling in C&I 200. Admission is limited each academic year to approximately 125 elementary education candidates and 125 secondary education candidates. To be eligible for admission a student must have completed at least 30 semester credits or 45 quarter credits of college-level work and have attained a minimum cumulative grade point average (GPA) of 2.75 or better, and must achieve passing scores on the Reading, Mathematics, and Writing sections of the Pre-Professional Skills Test ( PPST). Students also must have earned at least a C in both an English composition course and an introductory psychology course. As part of the application, students write an essay responding to one of three selected questions on becoming a teacher, document formal experience in working with children/youth, and present letters of reference from two professors who are familiar with their work.The admissions packet is obtained from the UC Bookstore. It contains the admission forms as well as the Teacher Education Policy Handbook, which describes more specific admission requirments and procedures. Meeting minimum eligibility requirements does not necessarily assure acceptance by the Teacher Education Program. Students who wish to appeal a denial of admission follow the appeals procedures outlined in the Teacher Education Policy Handbook.

Once admitted, students must maintain a minimum GPA of 2.75 each semester in order to continue in the program. Students who interrupt their studies for more than two years will be placed on inactive status and must request reactivation in order to resume their studies.

Students seeking a K-12 endorsement in library-media, reading or special education must have full admission into the Teacher Education Program or already be a certified/licensed teacher before applying to one of these specialized programs. Refer to the Teacher Education Policy Handbook for specific admission requirements.

Admission Policy for Minority Students and Students with Disabilities

The Teacher Education Program is committed to providing opportunities for teacher preparation for members of groups that historically have been disadvantaged and subjected to discrimination. The criteria for admission are the same for members of racial, ethnic and other minorities and students with disabilities as for other candidates; however, exceptions may be made to those admission requirements. Candidates who do not meet one or more of the criteria for admission are encouraged to describe in their applications any special circumstances and/or special talents that may compensate for unmet criteria. The physical, social, economic, and cultural circumstances that may have influenced the candidate's ability to achieve minimum eligibility for admission will be considered. A special effort will be made to determine the candidate's abilities and potential to overcome disadvantage or discrimination and become a successful beginning teacher. Upon entry to the program, the student will be assigned an advisor as a mentor. The student and mentor will design an appropriate course of study to achieve progress toward the degree and/or certification/licensure.

Application for Student Teaching

At the end of the junior year students should begin planning for student teaching. Students must meet the following criteria to be eligible to student teach: (1) full admission into the Teacher Education Program; (2) a grade of C or above in courses required for certification; (3) a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.75 and 2.75 in each field of certification/licensure; and (4) consent of the Director of Field Experiences. In addition, elementary education majors must have completed the required courses in methods of elementary teaching, and secondary students must have completed their methods course and at least two-thirds of the courses in their teaching field(s). Post-baccalaureate students must demonstrate an appropriate general education background prior to student teaching. Recommendation from the departments in the major and/or minor fields is also a prerequisite to student teaching. Candidates for K-12 certification/licensure must student teach at both elementary and secondary levels. Applications for student teaching are contained in the Student Teaching Packet available in the UC Bookstore. Consult the Teacher Education Policy Handbook for application deadlines and procedures.

Certification/ Licensure Requirements

The Dean or the Certification Specialist of the School of Education recommends to the State Office of Public Instruction eligible graduates for certification/ licensure as elementary or secondary teachers. Students who anticipate teaching in states other than Montana should investigate specific requirements of those states.

All applicants for initial certification/licensure in Montana must provide evidence of having completed the PPST or the CBT with the minimum scores established by the Board of Public Education.

For University degree requirements, refer to the graduation requirements listed previously in the catalog. See index.
