| Biology
majors seeking teacher certification are required to complete
the prescribed degree plan, complete a workshop to prepare for the
Texas Examination of Educator Standards (TExES), the teacher
certification exam, and successfully pass the Life Sciences
Benchmark exam. To enroll in the workshop, and for the state schedule
of teacher certification exams for the current academic year, contact

The
degree plan in Life Sciences leading to teacher certification
for grades 8-12 has been revised and approved by THECB (Texas
Higher Education Coordinating Board). Biology
majors seeking teacher certification are encouraged to discuss
their career plans with a faculty advisor,
and seek advice with respect to curriculum. You can fill the form
on-line and bring it to your advisor.
