Bachelor of Science (BS) in Physics and Astronomy Education

Valparaiso University

There’s a strong need nationally for talented physics educators in high schools. Currently, only roughly one-third of high school physics teachers have a degree in physics. You can inspire future generations, and set yourself up with a career, by becoming a high school teacher. The Physics & Astronomy Education major emphasizes 100, 200, and 300 level courses, making it more feasible to take other courses to prepare yourself for an education career. Note that a Physics or Astronomy major can also used to get the physics training you want and need.
