The Master of Education (M.Ed.) program serves as an enrichment degree designed to promote the professional development of experienced teachers.  It offers teachers wide flexibility to plan programs to meet professional goals, and to expand their expertise in their fields of interest. Credits earned in the M.Ed. program can be used by initially-licensed teachers to document their readiness for professional licensure. The M.Ed. does not lead to teacher licensing.
