Welcome to the Mathematics Education Program

The MU Mathematics Education program is comprehensive, meaning it includes undergraduate teacher certification at the middle, secondary and post-baccalaureate levels, a Master's program for teachers, and a nationally recognized doctoral program.

Faculty in mathematics education have a long and distinguished track record of state and national service and external funding to support regional, state and national research and service initiatives.

In the past 15 years, the national and international reputation of the program has grown dramatically and today it is among the top 10 programs in the nation in terms of number of faculty, number of full-time doctoral students, number of scholarly products per faculty, and annual external funding dollars generated.
