B.Ed. in Mathematics

The B.Ed. in Mathematics at C. K. Tedam University of Technology and Applied Sciences prepares you to teach mathematics at the senior high school level and beyond. It combines strong mathematical content with practical teaching skills, and is open to students from a wide range of SHS backgrounds.

What studying mathematics education involves

Programmes of this kind usually cover core mathematics areas such as algebra, geometry, statistics, and calculus, alongside courses in educational psychology, curriculum design, and teaching methods. You will learn how to explain mathematical ideas clearly, plan lessons, manage a classroom, and assess student progress. The degree builds your own problem-solving and logical thinking while giving you the tools to pass those skills on to others.

What you can do with a B.Ed. in Mathematics

Most graduates go into teaching, typically in junior or senior high schools, where mathematics teachers are in steady demand. Others find work as private tutors, education officers, curriculum developers, or textbook writers. Some continue to further study in mathematics, education, or related fields, which can open doors to lecturing or educational research.

How hard it is to get a place

This programme is in the less competitive band, meaning you have a better chance of admission compared to more sought-after programmes. The School of Mathematical Sciences accepts students from Business, General Arts, General Science, Home Economics, and Technical Studies backgrounds, so your secondary school focus does not have to be pure science.
