As a teacher, you'll prepare people to lead extraordinary lives. You'll profoundly influence young people by fostering their intellectual, social, emotional and physical growth. You'll experience joy when a student looks you in the eye and tells you, "I can do this." You'll feel the happiness of your students' successes, and you'll help students discover and use gifts they never realized they had.
Teach children and their family to read.
Through Marquette's Family Literacy Project, you can have a direct impact on the quality of life of many people in the Milwaukee area.
Diversity.
As a Marquette education major, you'll observe, assist and teach in a variety of school settings throughout the Milwaukee area: urban, suburban, bilingual, public and parochial.
Flexibility leads to marketability.
As an education student, you’ll automatically graduate with a double major in education and another academic major (your primary teaching area). But you’ll also have the option to earn certification in more than one subject, which makes you more appealing on the job market.
Complete the program on time.
Education majors planning to teach elementary/middle or middle/secondary usually complete the program in four years; students finish their course work in three and a half years and complete their student teaching in their eighth semester.
