CS Futures
A Pathway to Teaching Computer Science
High school students in Nebraska are newly required to take a CS class before graduating, creating a growing need for CS educators. The goal of CS FUTURES is to recruit & train undergraduate pre-service teachers to become CS teachers. We aim to create flexible pathways to CS certification across community colleges and universities in Nebraska.
The University of Nebraska - Lincoln is partnering with the following colleges to develop this program:
- University of Nebraska at Omaha
- University of Nebraska at Kearney
- Central Community College
- Metropolitan Community College
- Mid Plains Community College
- Northeast Community College
- Southeast Community College
- Western Nebraska Community College
