Teaching Credential with Master of Arts in Teaching - Santa Rosa
The Teacher Education program prepares reflective practitioners who foster intellectual growth, personal development, and multicultural democratic community in their classrooms and schools. The Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT) program focuses on curriculum, and we engage in critical study of historical and current controversies that shape what is taught in classrooms today.
Teachers learn to design curriculum that embodies their educational values and provides all students access to powerful learning opportunities. Our candidates learn how to provide their students — especially those most vulnerable to injustices — with an equitable, responsive, and empowering classroom experience.
- Offered each year in the Summer Semester
- Delivery: Hybrid, one evening per week and most Saturdays for 15 months

Our Faculty
Experts in the field and classroom teachers by trade, our professors offer an intimate understanding of day-to-day classroom life as well as effective pedagogical strategies.
After I finished my undergraduate degree I realized that my true passion has always been teaching, and I had always been drawn to helping my classmates and those around me. I chose to come to the University of San Francisco so that I could help inspire the next generation of critical thinkers and leaders both inside and outside the classroom.”
