Curriculum and Instruction - M.Ed.

The Curriculum & Instruction (C&I) Master of Education (M.Ed.) degree is a professional development degree that strives to enhance each student's career aspirations, which are frequently tied to a future employment objective. Each M.Ed. student works closely with an advisor to address individual professional development goals. Professional teaching experience is not necessary to apply.

The M.Ed. program does not prepare students for state licensure. For graduate-level programs that prepare teacher candidates for initial licensure in Ohio and many other states, please see our Master of Arts in Teaching (M.A.T.) in Secondary Education and/or our Early Childhood Education M.A.T. programs.
