Tailored for certified educators aiming to explore mathematical theory while cultivating evidence-based instructional methods to enhance student learning in mathematics. The University of Colorado Denver acknowledges that impactful mathematics instruction demands both profound insight into student development and comprehensive mastery of mathematical concepts. This program targets licensed teachers eager to investigate mathematical principles while refining teaching strategies grounded in research to bolster students' mathematical understanding. Alumni of the Master of Science in Mathematics Education (MSEd) may find themselves well-prepared to advance toward doctoral studies. Excelling in leadership positions within urban and diverse educational settings, they grasp mathematics' pivotal role in scientific and engineering disciplines.
The MSEd in mathematics education blends educators' acquisition of mathematical knowledge, teaching methodologies, and research skills. This model enhances educators' capacity for effective K-12 instruction. Developed through partnership between the School of Education and Human Development (SEHD) and the Department of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences (CLAS), the program merges mathematical and educational perspectives, creating a genuinely interdisciplinary curriculum that may include opportunities for independent research projects.
