MA candidates in the Curriculum & Pedagogy program must fulfill eight half-course credits plus a thesis. Depending on prior background and academic preparation, supplementary coursework may be necessary. Full-time students must finish all degree requirements within three years of starting, while part-time students have six years to complete the program.
