Licensure Notification

This program typically leads to licensure/certification and was designed to meet such qualifications for the state of Utah. Students who are or may be planning to pursue licensure/certification in any other US state or territory may need to meet additional education requirements. This is not a reflection of SUU’s accreditation or quality, as each state and territory regulates their own education requirements for occupational licensure.

Students enrolled in a teacher preparation program may potentially be able to use a Utah educator license to obtain licensure through reciprocity. Additional information may be found through the Department of Teacher Education’s reciprocity table.

Program Learning Outcomes

Graduates of the Mathematics and Mathematics Education programs will have an ability to:

• Use standard mathematical techniques to solve computational problems.
• Demonstrate knowledge of fundamental mathematical concepts and results in the core content areas.
• Use content knowledge to solve applied and real-world mathematical problems.
• Communicate mathematics effectively using proper notation and terminology.
• Use logical reasoning to construct clear and concise mathematical proofs.
