The Collaborating Master Educator M.A.Ed. Program in Curriculum & Instruction is designed to enhance the skills of licensed teachers to meet the needs of diverse students, including those with disabilities, in inclusive settings. Required courses address evidence-based practices in differentiated instruction, collaborative teamwork, positive behavior support, and teacher leadership. Program electives allow participants to select courses that complement previous preparation and experience, and that may be applied toward licensure in special education, general education, or educational leadership/ supervision. (Completion of this degree program is typically not sufficient for licensure or endorsement. Additional coursework may be needed.) Most students in the program continue to teach full-time and complete master’s degree coursework on a part-time basis.

PLEASE NOTE: Applications for part-time study are considered with the October 1 and January 15 deadline dates.
