Master of Education in History

Master of Education in History

The History Department has developed this new concentration in collaboration with the Education Department. This new program is aimed at elementary and secondary teachers who desire to further their breadth of subject matter knowledge and professional development. It is similar to programs developed at other comprehensive state universities. To make the concentration practical for education practitioners we hope to use a combination of summer, weekend, evening, and Web/distance-based courses.
