About the MA in Education Program

Our program provides quality professional opportunities to teachers so that they can influence decision making in the classrooms, schools and communities in which they teach.

Today’s classroom teachers must be better prepared to handle a wide range of instructional and non-instructional tasks. Given tremendous sociological changes in society, teachers must be prepared to work as social change agents, collaborating with the home and community in order to address issues of literacy and diversity.

Teachers must be ready and willing to make a difference within their classrooms and in the school districts and communities in which they teach. It becomes both the social and ethical responsibility of today’s teacher to make a difference within the context of the classroom.
