Mathematics Education, MEd

The Master of Education in Mathematics Education is ideal for elementary, middle, and secondary school teachers. Its purpose is to provide an opportunity for graduate students to increase their knowledge of mathematics and pedagogy, as well as to become aware of research and innovations in mathematics education. Upon completion of the program, graduate students will be prepared to serve as leaders of mathematics education in their school districts or to pursue a doctoral degree in mathematics education. Completion of this degree meets the requirements for Level II certification. The program consists of 36 credits in four broad areas: Education and Educational Research (6 credits), Mathematics Education Core (12 credits), Mathematics Education Content (12 credits), and Mathematics Education Electives (6 credits). The program consists of two specializations – one specialization in Secondary Mathematics Education and one specialization in Elementary and Middle School Mathematics Education.
