The BAE in secondary education program prepares educators who wish to teach students in seventh through 12th grade. While students develop a strong theoretical background, the program focuses on developing the requisite teaching knowledge and abilities to be a successful middle or high school teacher. In order to integrate teacher education preparation with the secondary education requirement for an academic specialization, the Mary Lou Fulton Teachers College maintains connections with academic departments across the university. Internships are required in the schools, and some courses are taught in the field. Graduates desiring to teach in a public school, preschool, kindergarten or primary grades must pass the Arizona Educator Proficiency Assessments (AEPA) in both content area and professional knowledge to be certified to teach in Arizona.
