M.A. in TLTE 

This program seeks to prepare scholars whose work will influence educational change in local, regional, national, and global settings. The TLTE Master of Arts programs serve professional educators at all stages of their careers from initial certification to advanced research and professional development practices. Faculty members who teach in the program combine deep research knowledge with K-16 classroom experiences to challenge graduate students and educators to be innovative in their teaching, learning, and professional practices across diverse educational settings.

Faculty engage graduate students in meaningful research, teaching, and service opportunities that help students reach their goals as professionals. This program offers a combination of on-campus classes, synchronous hybrid classes, and online asynchronous classes that can be effectively tailored to meet the professional demands of each student.
