Students who hold a Bachelor’s
degree must obtain teacher certification at the graduate level at UT Arlington.
Teacher certification
can be earned either through a certification-only
program (non-degree seeking) or the Master of
Education in Teaching. Click on the
program you are interested in to view the
coursework required for that program, as well as other helpful information.
IMPORTANT NOTICE for graduate students pursuing initial teacher certification. PLEASE READ.
The Texas Education Agency has issued new requirements for student teacher supervision, according to the Texas Administrative Code (TAC 228.35(f). This includes a minimum of three 45-minute formal classroom observations followed by a 20-minute interactive conference between the student teacher and the university supervisor. This means that all UT Arlington student teacher placements must be in our partner districts in the DFW area. There will be no out of area placements. The Field Office will place all student teachers in a partner district based on the availability of cooperating teachers in the different subject areas.
You can view admission requirements for these programs on the admissions page.
