Connected Degree

Science Education: Chemistry/Physics

to Chemistry Education

An opportunity to gain an associate degree from Delaware Tech and a bachelor's degree from the University of Delaware.

YOUR PATH TO A BACHELOR'S DEGREE

Delaware Tech has established agreements with four-year colleges and universities that connect Delaware Tech associate degree programs with bachelor's degree programs to create smooth transfer opportunities for you. These Connected Degree programs enable you to complete your associate degree and then transfer to a four-year degree program as a junior.

THE CONNECTED DEGREE 2 + 2 CURRICULUM

Delaware Tech's Science Education Associate Degree prepares students for transfer to a baccalaureate degree program that leads to a teaching career in high school physics or chemistry. The program provides rigorous science course work as well as field experience in a secondary school setting. Upon completion of your associate degree, you can work as a paraeducator in the school system. Upon completion of your bachelor's degree, you can work as a high school chemistry or physics teacher. The University of Delaware's Bachelor of Arts in Chemistry Education Program prepares high school teachers with a strong liberal arts and content background to teach high school science. The program is accredited by NCATE (National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education). Students complete the requirements for a Liberal Arts degree, a major in their content area and the professional education courses. On completing the program requirements, students will receive the University of Delaware's endorsement for teaching certification. High school teaching is a rewarding career with multiple opportunities in and outside of the classroom. Program graduates have positions in school districts across the United States, from California to Maine and Florida.

VALUE FOR YOU
