Education students seeking a teaching license are eligible to apply the licensure credits taken as part of their undergraduate degree toward Hamline’s Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT) program. This program allows for a seamless transition to graduate study. After earning a bachelor’s degree, students finish any remaining licensure requirements as MAT students. After completing all licensure requirements, including student teaching, students finish the MAT degree by taking two additional courses. For more details about the benefits of this program and the requirements for admission, please contact the School of Education and Leadership at education@hamline.edu.
