Welcome to the Office of Field Experiences!

The Office of Field Experience is responsible for administering and organizing all field placements for teacher certification. Field experiences are an integral part of teacher preparation and the key to help teacher candidates become effective educators who can successfully connect theory to practice. Based on these premises, our office strives to provide UTRGV teacher candidates with vast and structured hands-on experiences in the field from the beginning of their teacher preparation program to the end. Our main goal is the success of our teacher candidates in becoming effective educators while maintaining the highest standards of academic excellence.
