UTeach Impact


A strong STEM-capable workforce is critical to U.S. innovation and economic prosperity, but we are falling behind in production of STEM professionals. We need at least 1 million more STEM professionals over the next decade—34% more than we are currently producing. Additionally, women and minorities continue to be underrepresented in the pool of STEM graduates.

UTeach has the solution. UTeach prepares teachers with deep content knowledge and inquiry-based pedagogical strategies. UTeach programs produce teachers at a lower cost than other leading programs, and our graduates stay in teaching longer, improve student performance in math and science, and influence students to enter STEM fields.

UTeach students cost less to train when compared to traditional teaching programs.

UTeach students will remain employed in the teaching profession longer than traditional teachers.

When comparing cost and length of employment, it is more affordable to higher a UTeach graduate.

UTeach students impact student learning by adding almost 5.7 more months of education to a student than a traditional teacher adding 4 months.

UTeach teachers impact over 350 students in their professional role compared to the 70 of a traditional teacher.

86% of all UTeach graduates are still teaching.
