Mathematics Education
Master of Science

The online Mathematics Education program is designed to meet the needs and professional goals of those preparing for leadership roles in mathematics education. Practicing middle and secondary school teachers can earn, completely online, one of two advanced degrees that focus on the teaching of mathematics in middle or high school. Opportunities exist for graduate students to participate in major research projects that are setting new directions and further research for K-20 school mathematics. The curriculum for the Master of Science (MS) in Education and Educational Specialist (EdS) degrees also assists teachers in preparing for National Board Certification.
