The Bard MAT is an intensive graduate teacher education program leading to a discipline-based master of arts in teaching degree and New York State initial teacher certification (grades 7–12) in one of five subjects: biology, history (social studies), literature (English), mathematics, or Spanish. Any questions or interest in courses, careers, or other support in K-12 education. Aside from our certification program for grades 7-12 teachers, we also field inquiries for tutors for children in the Bard community and can provide guidance to anyone in the Bard community with an interest in K-12 education.
