The Master of Arts in Teaching (M.A.T.) degree provides an avenue of entry into the teaching profession through graduate level study. The M.A.T. in Mathematics is intended for persons with a baccalaureate degree who have majored in mathematics (or the equivalent). Completion of the M.A.T. in Mathematics leads to certification to teach mathematics in grades 9-12.
