Milwaukee Urban Experience (Summer)
The Summer MUE Experience
The UW-La Crosse School of Education partners with Notre Dame School of Milwaukee for this experience. Teacher candidates complete their Field II requirements and coursework in the summer before they complete their student teaching semester.
Designed as an intensive four-week, hands-on experience, students live and teach in Milwaukee first and complete online coursework afterward. Teacher candidates stay in housing with other program participants and have the opportunity to participate in activities around the school.
Special Considerations:
It is likely that participating in this experience will advance your time to degree. Be sure to check with your advisor about your options.
Students may be eligible to receive scholarships, particularly for housing.
Courses Included:
- EDS 446 (Field Experience, Middle School Level)
- EDS 421 (Science Methods)
- EDS 422 (Math Methods)
- EDS 452 (Online asynchronous after field experience, Philosophy and Curriculum for Young Adolescent Learners
Application & Selection Process
MUE admission is tied to the fall SOE admissions cycle.
Special considerations:
- Prerequisites for both Field II block and Student Teaching must be completed before spring semester (the semester preceding MUE).
- Students should apply for Student Teaching at the same time as they apply for Field I.
