The Master of Education Program in Curriculum and Teaching reflects teaching and learning in the 21st Century and is designed to enhance curricular innovation and teaching practices necessary for master teachers. Coursework, field-based experiences, and a final project or thesis are designed to develop and extend abilities to facilitate learning for students. The required twelve credit hours of electives offers choice in selecting a certificate or endorsement program from a menu of contemporary offerings or designing one’s own curricular focus. This choice equips candidates with research and skills applicable to today’s classrooms.

Upon completion of the Master’s degree, students in the Curriculum and Teaching program are expected to be able to:
- Assess and support multiple perspectives regarding issues and trends in curriculum and instruction.
- Compile related research and adapt best practices in the classroom.
- Perform teaching that integrates theory with practice in the classroom.
- Adapt and initiate current technology in the classroom.
