Master of Education Programs

Principal Certification

Dual Language Emphasis

Higher Education Emphasis

This is the ‘traditional’ program that leads to Principal Certification in K-12 schools. Students who do not already hold a Master’s degree must pursue the M.Ed. as opposed to the certification-only program.

This is a specialized Principal Certification program. As many schools transition to Spanish immersion and dual language programs, the need for administrators knowledgeable about the special needs of these programs increases. Ability to speak Spanish not required.

This degree option does not carry any certification for primary and secondary educational settings. Instead it is designed for individuals who work in higher education and wish to enhance their administrative skills and abilities at the college and university level.
