Master of Education [M.Ed] [Curriculum and Instruction] From Texas Christian University

The Curriculum and Instruction master’s degree program is designed for teachers, and other educational professionals, interested in improving their instruction, preparing for positions of leadership, or enhancing their abilities to support learning in K-12 schools or other educational settings.

The program offers graduate students two kinds of preparation: 1) knowledge related to content and 2) knowledge that helps them contribute to scholarship. The degree is constructed so that students choose a content specialization and either a research emphasis, or a teaching and learning emphasis. The objectives of the program are to:

• Provide a rigorous master’s degree program that prepares graduate students to work with children, adolescents, and families in a variety of educational settings.
• Provide graduate students with the knowledge and skills necessary to enhance their teaching and research abilities.

There are two options for earning the Curriculum and Instruction master’s degree:

• Traditional master’s degree (36 credit hours)
• Accelerated master’s degree (36 credit hours)
