The Master of Education Program
The Master of Education (M.Ed.) Program is designed for educators who wish to advance their careers by taking an advanced or leadership role within their school system. Many of our M.Ed. programs include accommodations for educators who are not currently in the classroom and have a passion and talent for working with youth.

The Master of Arts in Teaching Program
The Master of Arts in Teaching (M.A.T.) Program supports future educators in pursuit of an initial career in teaching and assists career changers who wish to become teachers. The M.A.T. program has a long history of preparing both traditional and conditional teachers seeking to meet the needs of their students and obtain initial licensure.
