STEM Education Graduate StudiesLocal teacher Amanda Ringenbach ’16 took on the challenge to pursue her STEM Certification as she saw an increased push for STEM in the classroom.
Develop an integrated STEM pedagogy that inspires your students by helping them make connections across disciplines and understand real-world applications.
The coursework in LVC’s Integrative STEM Education Certificate provides you with the tools and best practices you need to integrate K–12 STEM concepts, design a standards-based curriculum, apply for funding, and develop a digital portfolio of teaching evidence.
Our Integrative STEM Education Certificate is a four-course graduate certificate program that takes place online and on campus. Depending on your teaching credentials, you’ll also be eligible to apply for a STEM endorsement from the Pennsylvania Department of Education.
You know some classroom challenges can’t be solved by one disciplinary approach. Get the tools you need to work across STEM disciplines in a flexible course format that works around your schedule.
To meet the needs of full-time educators, we offer three different course paths on a rolling basis. Depending on your needs and schedule, enroll in a cohort with a hybrid format or take all your courses online.
Want to deepen your knowledge of STEM pedagogy? Apply your credits toward our Master of Science in STEM Education program to increase your employment opportunities and get on a path to permanent certification.
