The MEd degree is for certified secondary school teachers. This program allows you to upgrade your certificate and, optionally, to earn a coaching endorsement. Upgrade information is available on the Georgia Professional Standards Commission (PSC) website.
This program prepares you for leadership in mathematics teaching for grades 6-12. If you are interested in teaching PreK-8, see our Griffin program.
For teachers who already have a Master's degree, regardless of institution, the MEd program can be tailored into an EdS program that incorporates previous Master's work.
You will build skills and knowledge in mathematics, pedagogy and curriculum, and leadership. Our program fits the scheduling needs of full-time teachers and prepares them for leadership roles in schools and districts by including course work and practical experiences in coaching, curriculum design, and analysis of policy.
Your program of study will consist of 36 hours:
9 hours of pedagogy and curriculum
15 hours of mathematics, statistics, or mathematics education content
12 hours of research and leadership
