   Welcome Message 

Thank you for visiting our web page. On behalf of the UT3 students, faculty, and staff, I would like to welcome you to UToledo. UTeach. UTouch the Future (UT3). Being a teacher in our nation’s urban school districts is one of the most challenging, yet most rewarding careers one can pursue. Education is the bedrock of our democratic society, and as a teacher you will be preparing citizens to lead productive lives. If you want a meaningful profession, job security, the ability to work throughout the country and impact the lives of our nation’s children, science or mathematics teaching may be the perfect career choice for you.
 
Science and mathematics teachers play a critical role in today’s society. The performance of students in science and mathematics is of great concern in the United States since both disciplines are crucial for today’s technologically oriented workforce. Many careers facing a shortage of qualified applicants such as engineering, nursing, science and mathematics teaching, and health professions, are highly dependent on well-educated students in science and mathematics.
 
I encourage you to take advantage of the opportunities that the UT3 has to offer to you in becoming a science or mathematics teacher. These opportunities include financial and professional support, but more importantly, the College’s faculty and staff are dedicated to helping you achieve academic success and providing you with the foundation to becoming an exemplary teacher.
 
Our partner school districts also work closely with you to help you achieve your career goals. UT3 students enrich their education and gain professional experience by working in and out of the classroom throughout the program. Students have early exposure to science or mathematics teaching in urban schools by working with exceptional teachers in Toledo Public Schools and urban Toledo Catholic Schools. Students tutor in area schools and learn by using innovative technologies in today’s classrooms while completing their degree.
 
Thank you for your interest in UT3. I would like you to consider the unique opportunities and advantages that UT3 offers to enrich your education in science or mathematics teaching. We take great pride in our nationally recognized science and mathematics programs and are committed to preparing students to become outstanding teachers. I encourage you to explore UT3; as a science or mathematics teacher you will touch the future.


Sincerely,

Charlene M. Czerniak
Professor & Director, UT3
