UTeach Replication: The University of Texas at Austin

$1.4 Million over 5 years to The University of Texas at Austin to fund a replication of the UTeach Institute’s UTeach Teacher Certification Program at another university in the state. The goal of the UTeach Institute is to increase the number of math and science teachers in high need areas of the state who exhibit both a deep understanding of secondary level math and science content as well as knowledge of curriculum development and instructional strategies. Over the past decade, the UTeach program has been so successful in producing significantly more certified math and science teachers that it has become a national model for teacher certification.
