Master of Arts in Teaching<\/h1><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Earlham\u2019s M.A.T. program is an 11-month program that leads to a master\u2019s degree and an Indiana teaching license (grades 5-12). The program offers licensure in social studies, English\/language arts, mathematics, science, modern foreign languages, music, art, physical education, business, computer science, journalism, and theatre at the middle and high school levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

M.A.T. graduates are immensely well-prepared for their first year of teaching. Besides engaging in rigorous coursework, candidates plan and lead a summer enrichment program with middle school students and complete a year-long placement at a local middle or high school. Under the guidance of their supervisor and mentor teacher, candidates gradually gain responsibility in the classroom, eventually assuming a full-time teaching load in the spring semester.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The M.A.T. Program is fully accredited by the State of Indiana. The Graduate Programs in Education is currently seeking accreditation for the M.A.T. program through the Association for Advancing Quality in Educator Preparation (AAQEP). The College is anticipating a site visit from AAQEP in Fall 2024.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
