Become a Teacher through Roberts’ Initial Teaching Certification Graduate Program

This program is designed for Roberts undergraduate students, who majored in something other than education, that are seeking teacher certification through a graduate program. Students who are accepted to the 4+1 program will earn advanced standing in the Initial Certification Education Masters program, allowing them to complete their undergraduate degree and masters degree in a total of five years. Accepted students will enroll in two graduate courses in each of their final two undergraduate semesters. Upon completion of their undergraduate program, students will enter the graduate program and complete all remaining coursework and other program requirements. Students may apply for one of the following initial certification graduate programs:
