Our MSEd program is designed to help you grow your leadership capabilities across a broad base of advanced skills educators and administrators need to know. You can also choose from one of five concentration options that let you focus on a particular student group or area of leadership.
We know that teachers and administrators have a lot on their plates. That’s why we offer our MSEd program online—so you can complete your coursework at a time that works for you. You also have the option to attend classes on campus if you prefer.
