Bachelor of Science in Biology - Education

Lamar University

Lamar University's Bachelor of Science in Biology with a teaching certification is a program for students wanting to teach science grades 7-12. This degree plan is similar to the B.S. in Biology except that some courses in chemistry, physics and biology are replaced with pedagogy coursework that prepares you to be a professional educator. The need for STEM professionals extends to teachers, and demand is growing in public and private schools across the country. Upon graduation, you will have the privilege of sharing your knowledge in the classroom with younger generations. To become a certified teacher in Texas, you must complete an undergraduate degree, pass state exams in both a subject area and in pedagogy and must comply with other state requirements.
