Secondary Education Endorsement
Specific departments in the College of Arts and Sciences, in cooperation with the Department of Teaching and Learning in the School of Education, Health and Human Behavior offer a content-specific teaching field specialization as part of the Master of Science in Education (MSEd) in curriculum and instruction. A jointly advised program ordinarily including 18 hours in the content area will be designed, taking into account each student's background and interests.
Before beginning and throughout the program, the student must consult with the content area graduate advisor before registering for any courses in the content area. Upon completion of the program, the student must have accumulated at least 42 semester hours in the content area (graduate and undergraduate work combined). Students admitted to the program with less than 27 hours of acceptable undergraduate work will be required to complete more than 18 graduate hours in the content area in order to satisfy degree requirements. Students must achieve a GPA of at least 3.0 on a 4.0 scale in the content area teaching field, as well as an overall GPA of at least 3.0 on a 4.0 scale.
