UTeach Information
UTeach is a STEM educator preparation program that gives teacher candidates an early experience in the classroom. From the first course, teacher candidates are immersed in classrooms teaching their content and have the opportunity to gain first hand teaching experience. As part of the UTeach program, students receive secondary STEM teaching licensure alongside a degree in their content area which reduces barriers for employment.
Celebrating its 25th year nationally, UTeach develops highly-prepared and reflective practitioners who stay in the classroom longer through a comprehensive, research-based, clinically-intensive preparation to teach.
Alabama UTeach Initiative funding is provided by Alabama legislature to implement UTeach at several universities in the state to increase the number of secondary STEM teachers.
This initiative is supported by the governor, the legislature, ACHE, and the Alabama State Dept. of Education.
