Program details
Overview
This program is a Bachelor of Education in Secondary Education with a major or minor in Mathematics, offered through the Faculty of Education and preparing students to teach mathematics, among other subjects, to students in grades 7 through 12. Students choose two areas of specialization, a major and a minor, allowing them to combine mathematics with another teaching area as part of their overall training. The Mathematics major can also be taken as part of a combined Bachelor of Science / Bachelor of Education degree for students who want a more science-oriented route into secondary teaching. The degree is normally completed as a four-year program but can also be taken as an after-degree for students who already hold a prior credential. Upon completion, students are recommended for teacher certification in Alberta. The program suits students who want to become secondary school mathematics teachers and are prepared to pair that specialization with a second teachable subject as part of a standard or combined-degree route into the profession.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Offered by the Faculty of Education as either a four-year direct-entry degree or an after-degree option. Required Alberta high school courses: English Language Arts 30-1; one course from Fine Arts, Humanities, Languages other than English, Options, Physical Education or Math/Sciences; and three additional courses from Humanities, Languages other than English or Math/Sciences (acceptable Math/Science options include Mathematics 30-1, Mathematics 30-2, Mathematics 31, Physics 30, Chemistry 30, Biology 30, Science 30 or Computing Science Advanced). The page notes Mathematics 30-2 is accepted for admission, though Mathematics 30-1 is a prerequisite for some required courses in this major. No minimum GPA or standardized test score is listed. English language proficiency is required for all applicants. Application deadline for fall admission is March 1 for both domestic and international applicants.
Application Details
Application Deadline:Domestic applicants apply directly to the University of Alberta, not through a provincial service: for Fall 2027 entry the application window opens 1 October 2026 and the deadline for most programmes is 1 March 2027, though several limited-enrolment programmes close earlier (Juris Doctor, 1 December 2026; Dental Hygiene, 1 November 2026) or later (Bachelor of Design and BFA programmes, 1 May 2027); Spring and Summer 2027 admission also opens 1 October 2026, while Winter intake is limited to a few programmes. International applicants use the identical published dates and online application; the university states no separate international closing date. The 1 March deadline is firm and late applications are not accepted, but admission decisions are then issued on a rolling basis, and offers made before 1 April must be accepted by 1 May 2027. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
