What is the California Teach Science and Math Initiative?
The University of California launched the California Teach Science and Math Initiative in 2005 in response to the critical shortage of highly qualified math and science teachers in the state. The need is expected to increase with an anticipated wave of teacher retirements. The initiative’s strategies are to: a) offer undergraduates opportunities to explore math and science teaching as a career option; and b) offer degree program options that combine a bachelor’s degree in math, the sciences, or a related discipline with teacher education coursework.
