C&I Program Overview

The Masters of Arts Degree in Curriculum and Instruction has been developed collaboratively with faculty in discipline areas and in education. Programs with different areas of emphasis can be planned to enable students to meet certification requirements of the Indiana Professional Standards Board as specified in the "approved program" of study. Upon successful completion of such a program, graduates are eligible for an appropriate Professional Certificate.

Individual courses offered in the program can be taken for renewal of an Indiana Teacher's license. Courses leading to certification in Mild Interventions under Rules 2002 are included in the graduate offerings.

Small class sizes, program flexibility, and personalized attention to you and your program of study are hallmarks of the graduate program. From the dean, to the graduate director, to every instructor, the faculty and staff are accessible and willing to answer your questions.

Required core courses: 12 credit hours
Education Courses: 15 credit hours for elementary and 12 credit hours for secondary
General courses (including courses in liberal arts): 9 credit hours for elementary or 12 credit hours for secondary
