Master of Education in Mathematics Education

M.Ed. Mathematics Education

Students who complete the M. Ed. in Mathematics Education go on to teach part time or full time in a college setting, serve as mathematics instructional leaders in school districts, continue as exemplary models for teaching in their K-12 classrooms, pursue a doctorate degree in mathematics education and much more.

The program consists of four parts: Professional Education Core (15 hours), Mathematics Content Core (12 hours), Guided Electives (6 hours), and a Thesis/Capstone Experience (2 hours). In order to meet the diverse goals and professional development needs of our graduate students, the program is flexible.

Our program provides experiences that also support the continuing professional development of practicing K-12 mathematics teachers. While not designed for the initial preparation of teachers, those who hold bachelor's degrees in Elementary Education, Early Childhood Education, Special Education, Secondary Mathematics Education, Mathematics, the sciences, and teachers who have alternative certification are encouraged to apply.

We rely on strong academic advising when developing individual degree plans that takes into account a candidate's current knowledge, skills, and future goals.

Courses in the program are offered on a rotating basis and are blended, online, or face to face.

The Master of Education in Mathematics Education is administered through the Gregg Wadley College of Science & Health Professions.
