I. Option in General Mathematics (32 units)

 This option incorporates both pure and applied math courses to prepare students for graduate work in mathematics.

II. Option in Pure Mathematics (32 units)

This option emphasizes the core theory of mathematics and is recommended for students who are contemplating doctoral studies.

III. Single Subject Teaching Option (38 units)

In order to obtain a Single Subject Teaching Credential in Mathematics, students must complete the Subject Matter Certification requirement and required professional education coursework (see Option IV for a list of these classes). Option III satisfies only subject matter requirements while Option IV satisfies both subject matter requirement and required professional education coursework.

For the required professional education coursework students should consult the Charter College of Education  for credential requirements at least two quarters prior to graduation. Students should also consult the mathematics department credential advisor prior to taking MATH 350 .

IV. Single Subject Teaching Blended Option (77 units)

In order to obtain a Single Subject Teaching Credential in Mathematics, students must complete the Subject Matter Certification requirement and the required professional education coursework. This option satisfies both the subject matter requirement for mathematics and the professional education requirement for a California Single Subject Teaching Credential in Mathematics. This blended degree is designed to be obtained in four years (200 units) for a college-ready student.
Students should consult the Math Department credential advisor no later than their second year in the program regarding the professional education courses and prior to enrollment in MATH 350 .
