teaching appointments are eligible to apply. Specific details of the eligibility criteria are described within the application materials.
The Degree
Teaching fellows can choose among the several degree programs offered through the College of Education. The majority of these programs require a
minimum of 34 credit hours of coursework to earn a Master's Degree. Upon admission Fellows will be assigned an academic advisor and fellowship
program advisor who will both assist them throughout their program. During the teaching fellowship year, all teaching fellows will register each semester
for a graduate practicum/seminar course based on their classroom activities (3 credits) plus an additional three credits of their choice per semester.
Responsibilities
Teaching fellows are responsible for all teacher duties including the organization and management of their own classrooms, parent/teacher relationships,
report cards, and other responsibilities typically connected with classroom teaching in the district where they are placed. These responsibilities are more
fully outlined in information given out by the individual districts.
Compensation
During the 2015-16 academic year, the teaching fellow graduate assistant stipend will be $19,800. In addition, each teaching fellow will receive the
Minnesota State University tuition waiver which pays full regular tuition for graduate credits, up to 9 credits per semester (spring and fall terms only).
Further Information and Applications
Applicants will be screened, interviewed, and selected by the partnering PDS school district. Final decisions on classroom placements will be made by the
school districts. Applicants who are chosen for a Graduate Teaching Fellowship will need to apply to the College of Graduate Studies at Minnesota State
University, Mankato, and must meet entrance requirements. Please contact the Center for School-University Partnerships for information and application
