GMC-Funded Faculty Development 

A master’s degree is required; it does not have to be in mathematics. Candidates with an MAT, a master’s in mathematics education, or another education or related master’s degree may be considered if they have completed graduate mathematics coursework demonstrating a foundation for instruction, as determined by Academic Affairs. 

Candidates who have not completed 18 semester hours of qualifying graduate mathematics coursework must complete an approved graduate coursework plan to reach that requirement. GMC will cover the cost of approved graduate coursework needed to meet the required mathematics teaching certification. The plan and completion timeline will be established with Academic Affairs. 

Initial teaching assignments require Academic Affairs’ review and approval of the candidate’s current credentials. Additional assignments depend on completion and approval of the required coursework.
