教育学学士-中学教育（语言艺术）（5-9）

中学计划是一个小型的个性化计划，为希望教初中或初中学生的学生提供服务。它是一个混合程序，将以孩子为中心的基本认证理念与更典型的二级认证内容专门化相结合。中学专业学生在一个或多个5-9年级的内容领域中获得认证。他们可能被证明可以教数学，科学，传播艺术或社会研究。中学专业的学生探索10-14岁的学生所面临的独特挑战和回报，并通过在地区学校的实习和实习获得现实世界的经验。在具有丰富中学经验的教授的指导下，学生们在小组中完成课程学习。UMSL的中学课程在周围的教育社区中享有很高的声誉，由于选择该专业的学生数量有限
The Middle School program is a small, personalized program that serves students who wish to teach middle school or junior high school students. It is a hybrid program, combining the child centered philosophy of elementary certification with a content specialization more typical of secondary certification. Middle school majors earn certification in one or more content areas for grades 5-9. They may be certified to teach math, science, communication arts, or social studies. Middle school majors explore the unique challenges and rewards of teaching students aged 10-14 and gain real world experience through internships and practicums at area schools. Students progress through the program in small cohorts supervised by professors with extensive middle school experience. UMSL's middle school program is highly regarded in the surrounding educational community and, due to the limited number of students choosing this major, employment prospects are good.
