This program culminates in a professional qualification that merges key elements of educational studies with the scholarly rigor of a master's degree. Approximately 50% of coursework occurs in the College of Education, with the remaining half conducted through Italian Studies. Most students finish within two to three years, with their final semester entirely devoted to practical training (the practicum) - a mandatory requirement for all educator preparation programs in the Commonwealth. During this culminating experience, participants collaborate with experienced Italian instructors at Massachusetts high schools. Program coordination and student-teacher matching throughout the state are overseen by Dr. Stacy Giufre.

Qualification Requirements
We ask that you send official transcripts of your undergraduate work, your GRE scores and other materials as explained in Spire once your application is underway. It is best if you have your letters of recommendation sent by people who know your academic work and have an idea of your aptitude for teaching. If your native language is not English, you must additionally present a minimum score of 80 on the TOEFL exam in order to enroll at UMass Amherst. Students transferring from other institutions may be granted as many as nine credits of graduate-level work toward the MAT.
