Specialization in Secondary School Education offers a five-year program to prepare mathematics and science teachers for New York State junior and senior high schools. Many of the couses are of a technical nature since the students must have a solid back- ground if they are to teach their subject matter. The curriculum is slanted toward guidance and lead- ership of pupils, as well as comprehension of mathe- matics and science.
