Master of Education in Secondary Education (Licensure Track) (Chattanooga Campus) in Chattanooga United States | University of Tennessee, Knoxville

Our institution offers comprehensive teacher preparation through various licensure programs, along with community-focused education initiatives like our Child and Family Services program. Our graduates are making significant impacts as educators across the state. We continuously update our curriculum to align with state requirements and address the evolving needs of our community partners. Under Dr. Murley's leadership, we've transitioned to a full-year Residency program, replacing the traditional single-semester student teaching model, to better equip future educators for their first classroom experiences. Our philosophy centers on the principle that exceptional educators emerge from high-quality training, which our dedicated faculty delivers. We view education as a collaborative endeavor involving all stakeholders. The graduate program requires completion of 36 semester credit hours, comprising 24 hours in professional education, 9 hours of enhanced student teaching (Induction Experience), and 3 hours for the Culminating Activity. Students must also fulfill additional content coursework specified by their program advisor.
