Master of Education [M.Ed] Reading Education
The School offers graduate study and research experience in 10 areas of specialization: curriculum, teaching, and teacher education; educational technology; elementary education; mathematics education; language and literacy education (including children’s literature, English education, ESOL/bilingual education, language arts, and reading education); science and environmental education; social foundations of education; social studies education; and teacher leadership for school improvement.
The nationally recognized Proteach graduate program leads to the M.Ed. degree and state certification as a classroom teacher. Unified Elementary ProTeach admits undergraduates who complete the five-year program with a master’s degree. Secondary Proteach (English, Science, Social Studies) prepares teachers who have completed a bachelor’s degree in the discipline they will teach. Prospective elementary teachers who already hold a bachelor’s degree in a non-education field may want to consider the School’s SITE program (Site-based Implementation of Teacher Education), which leads to the M.Ed. degree in curriculum and instruction. Students may apply to the state for alternative certification.
