The AUM Secondary Education degree program will prepare you to teach at the middle- and high-school levels. You'll also have 150 hours of practical teaching experience before graduation. Hands-on field experience is included with each methods course and you'll go to area schools and work with experienced teachers to practice what you have learned. You'll learn under internationally recognized AUM faculty who have won awards such as the Excellence in Teaching award from Sigma Alpha Pi, Primary School Teacher of the Year award from Montgomery Public Schools, the College of Education Excellence in Teaching award, and more. To prepare, you'll go from our classroom to your own classroom with a practicum under expert supervision in one of our local schools. You'll also perform an internship under a local expert teacher and gain hundreds of hours of supervised field experiences in local schools to practice what you're learning in your teaching methods courses.
