物理系为希望攻读物理专业并从事教学工作的本科生提供了特殊选择。物理科学的青少年到青年（AYA）教师教育计划使CWRU学生准备好获得7-12年级的俄亥俄州教学许可。学生宣布开设第二个教育专业，涉及34个小时的教育和实习要求，并在BA物理学专业的背景下完成计划的一系列物理课程。该程序旨在提供一些其他程序所没有的独特功能，并使学生在整个教师准备职业期间处于受指导的教学环境中。这个小而严格的计划旨在利用CWRU物理系，其师范教育计划以及大学与地区学校建立的关系的优势。
The Physics Department offers a special option for undergraduate students who wish to pursue a Physics major and a career in teaching. The Adolescent to Young Adult (AYA) Teacher Education Program in Physical Sciences prepares CWRU students to receive an Ohio Teaching License for grades 7-12. Students declare a second major in Education, which involves 34 hours in Education and practicum requirements, and complete a planned sequence of physics courses within the context of the B.A. Physics major. The program is designed to offer several unique features not found in other programs and to place students in mentored teaching situations throughout their teacher preparation career. This small, rigorous program is designed to capitalize on the strengths of CWRU's Physics Department, its Teacher Education Program, and the relationships the University has built with area schools.
