About the Master of Arts in Education (M.A.Ed.)

The Master of Arts in Education degree program allows students who have an interest in an academic discipline in addition to education to specialize in that discipline. Up to half the credits toward the master’s degree may be taken in the area of concentration.

Special admission and degree requirements vary according to the concentration selected. It is possible for students to earn Pennsylvania instructional certification through this program or to add a second certificate in a new field of specialization. Certification requirements must be determined on an individual basis with the program coordinator.

The foundation courses provide knowledge basic to all aspects of education. The concentration courses focus on a discipline other than education.

Concentrations are available in English, History, Mathematics, Music, Theatre Arts and Written Communications.

A minimum of 15 credits of the degree program must be taken in a discipline other than Education; the remaining credits must be in Education.
