The Education Specialist degree (Ed.S.) is designed for students who possess a master’s degree in education and wish to pursue an additional license.
The Ed.S. consists of 30 credit hours and is offered in four areas of study. The capstone of the Ed.S. is either a practicum (if licensure is desired) or a research project.
Prerequisites for the Ed.S. include a passing score on the MTEL if student is seeking licensure. The Ed.S. program will follow the same schedule as the current master’s degree in the respective content areas offered, with classes taught on evenings, weekends and summers.
