The Faculty of Education is currently in the phase of revising its LMD programs. In order to modernize and to keep in track with the latest trends in Education, the Science and Math department made an in-depth study that involves 30 teachers and 9 trainers, who presented their ideas for innovation, suggestions for new courses and improvement in the present courses.  A large scale survey was done on undergraduate students, in order to collect ideas about the taught courses, students’ skills and courses learning outcomes, as well as needs and suggestions for new courses. Qualitative and quantitative data were collected a) from 1005 students-filled questionnaires that assess 33 courses from the Science and Mathematics Department and lasted over 6 semesters, as well as practicum courses at schools and b) a focus group of 34 students, in their last semester, filled a questionnaire detailing the taught courses, new courses and comments about their learning during their 6 semesters at the Faculty. Teachers suggested new courses like STEM and science and industry, proposed new specializations, such as science and math teacher preparation for middle classes, and redistribute some current courses. Students in their last semester, for instance, were satisfied with the taught courses related to their specialization, they complained from the redundancy in some courses like psychology and general education and they emphasize on taking into consideration their opinions and suggestions in the assessment of the LMD program.
