Academic programs in Secondary Education focus on building advanced content and specific pedagogical knowledge aligned to the needs of students in grades 7-12. Coursework emphasizes the social and intellectual skills necessary to ensure that high school students can thrive in a rapidly expanding world. Temple's degrees in Secondary Education provide the foundation needed for students to successfully meet the demands of high school and thrive in home and school communities.

The Secondary Education program prepares students for Pennsylvania Department of Education (PDE) teacher certification in secondary education (grades 7-12) and special education (grades 7-12). Students completing the concentration in World-Foreign Languages focus on one or more approved languages for PDE certification to teach grades K-12.
