Description:
The State of Nebraska accredits the MAT Degree as an initial certification
program and as a program to add an additional endorsement to an existing
teaching certificate. MAT candidates must therefore be enrolled in a program
leading to Nebraska certification.The Primary aim of the graduate program at
Hastings College is the preparation for classroom teaching in elementary and
secondary schools of America. The program is designed with three distinct
groups in mind:1. Certified and practicing teachers who are inclined to
return to the College to seek certification in an additional endorsement
area.2. Persons with a baccalaureate degree but no professional education
who would like to pursue initial certification in an endorsement area
offered at the College.3. Those undergraduate candidates with senior status
whose academic major(s) precludes their being able to complete both the
teaching major(s) and the required professional education courses within a
four-year time frame. It is also designed for senior candidates in good
standing who choose to begin a teaching certification program during their
senior year and wish to complete the MAT degree.
Degree(s):
