Education, MEd

Prepare for leadership roles in the classroom and school community while staying vested in your current position. The Master's of Education program offers online classes to fit your busy schedule.

What's unique to our MEd program is that it gives you the ability to choose a specialization that fits your goals and interests. Half of the coursework will consist of the core MEd curriculum, and the other half will allow you to grow in a specific area of expertise. This program will help you use your professional strengths and needs to shape practical learning experiences and apply them in classroom practice.

Coursework

Students complete 15 credits of the core coursework. You'll also complete the courses within your chosen specialization. Choose from the following options:

• Administration and Leadership Pre-K-12 Principal (Principal Post-Master's Graduate Certificate)

• Business, Computers, and Information Technology Certification

• Career and Technical Administration (Vocational Administrative Director Certificate)

• Instruction and Learning
