Master of Education

The M.Ed. program offers graduate licensure in elementary education (K-6), gifted education (K-12) and special education (K-12). In the M.Ed. program, students hone skills for implementing appropriate instruction and differentiating curriculum for all students while deepening their understanding of the different content areas. Though skill development is an important aspect of the program, empowering teachers to make professionally mature decisions and developing collaborative leadership and research expertise are also emphasized. The M.Ed. programs provide licensed teachers the opportunity to complete the degree across three summers and two academic years. The program also provides the opportunity to study abroad in Costa Rica.
