The University of Iowa has an MAT program for students with a
non-teaching BS. I think the program takes about a year and a half to
complete. The student would graduate with a MA not a MS, but if the
goal is to teach at a high school or small college, it shouldn't really
make a difference.
As a high school teacher in Iowa City, I've been privileged to work
with some of these MAT students in my classroom. Seems like a top notch
program.

Is there a place where a student with a BS in physics, top GRE physics
field test scores, and a talent for teaching can get an MS in Physics, a
teaching certificate, and also get support for his studies through an
assistantship or fellowship?
