UTeach is a teacher certification program administered by the College of Natural Sciences and the College of Education at the University of Texas at Austin.
It was created in 1997 to address both the shortage of qualified secondary mathematics, science, and computer science teachers as well as the quality of those entering the field.
The program has been well-received, cited by the National Academy of Sciences as a model program addressing the need for more highly qualified mathematics and science teachers.
