As the Director of Graduate Education for the Department of Curriculum & Instruction (C&I) and on behalf of the C&I Graduate Studies Committee and the C&I Graduate faculty, I welcome you to the web pages for our graduate programs.

If you are considering the pursuit of a graduate degree in C&I, we encourage you to explore the links designed to give you information about the degrees, areas of specialization, and areas of emphasis offered.

You will find that we provide opportunities for you to earn Master of Science (M.S.), Master of Education (M.Ed.), or Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) degrees with a major in Education. In addition, we offer opportunities to obtain teacher licensure through our Master of Arts in Teaching (M.A.T.) in science education or our M.Ed. in secondary mathematics.

We invite new and continuing students to explore the site for links to valuable information that will assist you as you progress toward your goals.
