<p>I want to become a teacher eventually but first would like to do something else, such as pharmacy. If I am a pharmacist (6 year PharmD program) how can I eventually become a teacher? Do i need to go back to school and get a degree for education? I would love to teach math/bio/chem</p>
<p>There are many routes to becoming a teacher. Usually if you have a bachelors degree in any field you can become a teacher with additional training. One way is with Alternate route [Alternative</a> Teacher Certification](<a href=“http://www.teach-now.org/overview.cfm]Alternative”>http://www.teach-now.org/overview.cfm) and the requirements vary state to state. I imagine you could also get a masters degree in education as well but the specifics you would have to check into.</p>
<p>I am a nurse and to teach nursing students, you need a Masters degree in Nursing. Pharmacy may have something similar if you wanted to teach pharmacy students.</p>
<p>Hmph… I’ve wanted to teacher something like Math, Chem, or Bio on the high school level. This 6 year program doesnt have any Bachelors degree… just straight to PharmD. Bleh</p>
