The secondary education faculty members are restructuring their teacher certification programs at UW-Madison. These programs may move to post-baccalaureate certification, which means that students will only be certified to teach these subjects through graduate-level work in the Department of Curriculum and Instruction. **If approved, certification will no longer be offered at the undergraduate level and the current undergraduate teacher licensing programs will be discontinued.**

The programs affected by these deliberations are English, Mathematics, Social Studies (Broad Field Social Studies, Economics, **Geography**, History, Political Science, Psychology, and Sociology), and Science (Biology, Chemistry, Earth and Space Science, Broad Field/Natural Science, and Physics).
