Latin Teaching and Classical Humanities - Boston University

Latin Teaching and Classical Humanities from Boston University is a Campus Master Teaching degree that prepares you for a Education career. The Department of Classical Studies and the School of Education offer graduate studies leading to the MA in Latin Teaching and Classical Humanities (MAT). This program is designed to prepare candidates for teaching careers in secondary schools, grades 9 - 12. After completion of this twelve-month program and after successful completion of the Massachusetts Educator Certification Tests (Literacy and Latin ), graduates meet teacher certification standards according to the Interstate Certification Compact and are certified in Massachusetts and approximately 30 other states. The Department of Classical Studies considers that a teaching career in secondary schools requires an in-depth study of classical languages, literature, and the culture of the Greco-Roman world. The program therefore offers a unique opportunity to combine courses in the School of Education with those in the Department of Classical Studies in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences. In addition to academic courses at the graduate level in both schools, field work and student teaching will be arranged in Boston-area schools. Field experience and courses commence in June. During the fall and spring semesters candidates complete their field work, student teaching, and academic course requirements. Typically the program concludes in May. It is possible, however, to begin the program in September and complete it within twelve months. This program is open to those who are currently teaching and desire MAT certification.
