BA/BS in Secondary Education

Qatar University's Bachelor of Education in Secondary Education is the country's only undergraduate degree route into secondary and preparatory teaching, open to both male and female students planning a career in the classroom. The program responds to ongoing shortages of qualified secondary teachers in government schools. It offers eight concentrations, each benchmarked against the national professional standards Qatar sets for teachers and school leaders, with subject-specific alignment to recognized external bodies: the English language concentration follows TESOL standards, the Social Studies concentration follows the National Council for the Social Studies, and the Mathematics concentration follows the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics. In 2017 the English language concentration earned a national-recognition award from NCATE, the US teacher-education accrediting body.
