UOTeach provides students with comprehensive graduate course work, 34-weeks of progressive field experience, and all related licensure requirements within a 12-month time frame. For this reason, we regularly schedule mandatory programmatic instruction or meetings on Fridays. You should expect to be in classes, field placement, or other program required activities 5 days a week during this graduate program.
