Master of Arts in Education (M.A.E). This program equips students specializing in English Language Arts with research-backed teaching methodologies and learning theories that foster language and literacy growth. Participants gain expertise in the core literacy practices of English language arts and develop skills to effectively implement these approaches. The curriculum also explores how contemporary educational challenges relate to literacy. Specialization options include Media Literacy Education (with online MLE course availability) and other customized focus areas. The M.A.E program culminates in either a thesis or project, with students working alongside faculty advisors to create a personalized study plan aligned with their career aspirations in literacy education. The 30-credit program requires a 3-6 credit research or instructional project completed with faculty guidance. Note: This degree does not provide professional teaching certification.
