Why Study Middle Level Education at UND?
The University of North Dakota offers the most comprehensive teacher education program in the state. Our program graduates teachers who enter classrooms in North Dakota, Minnesota, and across the nation.
The middle level program prepares teachers to meet the unique needs of the adolescent students in grades 5-8. The program draws from elementary and secondary education but focuses on developmental, curricular, and philosophical considerations to provide teachers the skills needed to serve this challenging age group.
You'll concentrate in two subjects taught at middle schools: math, science, English, social studies, and health.
Our courses are designed to provide real-world classroom experiences.
