Master of Education (M.Ed.)

Brainstorming in Dr. Tsu's classThe graduate degree program is designed to build upon the skills, knowledge and commitment of practicing educators. The focus is on K-12 teachers and their continuing professional development. Underlying is a vision of the teacher as one who is broadly educated and continuing to learn, skilled and committed to the craft of teaching and entrusted to nurture the greatest human potential in every learner.

The program is designed as a full-time or part-time program of study. Generally, the core and study-option courses are completed in the first year; students complete their elective courses and culminating experience the second year. The program allows students to embed professional certification and endorsements into degree programs, should they desire to do so. To meet the needs of students who are employed during the weekday, courses follow an evening schedule, though some courses may be offered on Saturdays.
