Overview

The Master of Education (M.Ed.) degree is organized under the umbrella of the Education Program at UW Tacoma. Within that framework, prospective teachers may earn a residency certificate. Prospective principals and program administrators may also earn a residency certificate.

For practicing teachers we offer professional certification, as well as study options including:

• At Risk Learner
• Curriculum and Instruction
• Multicultural Education
• Special Education
• Teaching English Language Learners(TELL)

We have a special advisory process to help teachers become highly qualified, earning new endorsements. This program allows studented to embed professional certification and endoresements into degree programs should they desire to do so.

As you will see, the programs vary in length, focus and requirements. Some are part-time and some are full-time. Upon acceptance, all students are assigned an adviser to find the most resonable and efficient means of reaching their desired goal.
