Teaching Certification

Want to teach? Bucknell can help. 

Whether you major in education or another subject, Bucknell's Department of Education can help you earn certification to teach in Pennsylvania schools, from Pre-K to Grade 12. 

Our teacher certification programs are designed for students who want to be professional teachers.

Paths to Certification & Required Courses for Each Certification Area

Bucknell faculty and staff will guide you through other licensure requirements, including field experience, student teaching and certification exams, to ensure you graduate with everything you need to begin your career in teaching.

All students seeking certification must take two mathematics-intensive courses, one English/American literature course and one W1 writing course (in addition to the literature course).
