The Learning, Design, and Technology Program was designed and developed by Georgetown University's center for teaching and learning the Center for New Designs in Learning and Scholarship (CNDLS) giving it the distinction of being the first learning and design master's degree program to have started in a center for teaching excellence and technology innovation. Through design projects and mentorships, students in the program will learn from CNDLS 20 years of experience working with faculty, departments and students to respond to the challenges facing higher education and student success.<br><br>With the tools and knowledge they gain in the program, students will be able to navigate these challenges and pursue careers in instructional and learning design, instructional technology, learning analytics, online program development, higher education administration and more. The Master's in Learning, Design, and Technology begins by establishing a common vocabulary and knowledge base for students. Students will explore and engage with critical topics within higher education that address learning, design, and technology including data analytics, innovation, and leadership. The coursework enables students to apply theory to practice primarily through opportunities involving learning experiences in which students work with clients at Georgetown University, in the broader Washington DC community, and locally, for those students who are online, to advance projects related to Learning, Design, and Technology. All students in the program will take courses that are designed to build a strong foundation in the core concepts of the program while allowing for a full range of elective experiences. Students interested in the LDT program may apply for the residential or the fully online option.
