The Curriculum and Instruction (EDCI) program, housed within the Department of Teaching and Learning, Policy and Leadership, offers graduate study leading to the Master of Education (M.Ed.). The Department offers a variety of programs individually designed to meet graduate students' personal and professional goals which may include educational research, teaching, supervising, providing leadership as curriculum specialists within the disciplines, teacher education or consulting at all levels of instruction: elementary, secondary and higher education. Some of the M.Ed. concentrations lead to teacher certification, including concentrations for candidates who have a bachelor's degree in fields other than education and wish to become certified teachers. Other options include stand-alone M.Ed. concentrations intended for teachers and other education professionals.
