This program requires 36 semester hours, including at least 27 semester hours at the graduate level. Each student will have a Graduate Faculty Advisor to assist in developing the degree plan. All upper-division undergraduate coursework proposed for inclusion in this graduate degree must be recommended for approval by the Graduate Faculty Advisor.<br><br>Students can choose to concentrate coursework in the areas of Bilingual Education, Early Childhood Education, Educational Technology, or Engineering. With Graduate Faculty approval, students who wish to focus on other subject areas can select courses from other UTEP departments.
