Biology, sufficient, become, Teacher, Degree


Question by 2Hot4Hell:

Is a degree in Biology sufficient to become a biology teacher?

I want to get my bio degree to become a biomedical researcher but I also hope to become a teacher someday. Can I accomplish both goals with my degree in biology or will have to get a separate degree to teach?

You will probably need some kind of credential to teach, especially higher levels like high school or community college. Requirements differ by state, I think; California has two tests, CBEST for lower levels (elementary) and CSET (more specific, and harder!).
