The BA/MAT and MAT are no longer available after 2022-23. Teaching licensure is available to undergraduates through the teacher education minor.

Brandeis undergraduates interested in teaching are encouraged to pursue the teacher education minor in pre-school, elementary or secondary education. Successful completion of the 8-semester program includes full-time student teaching in senior year and leads to teaching certification.

“The Brandeis MAT program offered both a rigorous challenge and a compelling opportunity to further my academic progress and work with bright young minds.”
