More than 30 pathways to teaching certification and educational leadership.

Preparing to inspire.

At Stony Brook, teacher and leader preparation spans every stage of an education career — from undergraduates declaring their first concentration to veteran teachers pursuing advanced credentials. Our programs are offered across multiple schools and departments, which means you study your subject alongside specialists in that field, not in a separate college of education.

Whether you're a high school student considering a teaching career, a Stony Brook student looking to add teaching certification to your major, a career changer with a bachelor's degree, an aspiring school administrator, or a credentialed educator looking to grow — there's a program here for you.
