Two Master's Degree Program Options

Important Reminders

  1. Students must complete a minimum of 36 credits.
  2. ED 703 and ED 711 have a shadowing requirement.
  3. ED 707 has an associated field placement.
  4. All semesters are eight-weeks long.

Students are expected to review and track their own progress towards completion of degree requirements.

This is provided as a sample guideline - it does not reduce the importance of careful and regular discussions between a student and their academic advisor.
