Modular Master’s

About the Degree

Modular Master’s in Education degree program focuses on educational processes in either general education or specialized areas. The foundations courses provide knowledge basic to all aspects of education. The culminating project provides an opportunity for the student to demonstrate their expertise on a particular topic and apply their learning across the courses in their program towards real-world issues and problems.

In consultation with a faculty member, students design a Modular Master program that fits their individual needs by combining two  Certificate modules , along with  two foundations courses and a culminating experience, For example, a student interested in the education of inner-city children whose first language is not English might choose to combine certificate modules in ESL and Urban Education for a Modular Master’s Degree.
