Master of Education: Science, Technology, Engineering and Math Education: Curriculum

All of our courses in the STEM Education program are offered online, so there is no requirement to come to campus.  The program consists of 30 graduate credits with 6 credits offered every semester for 5 semesters.

You will enter the program with a cohort of students that take courses together.  Instructors will guide you through how to complete course activities such as: reading webpages, sharing ideas with classmates in text discussion groups, watching video of STEM teaching; observing animations of STEM content, individual home-based activities, small group projects, case studies, papers, exams, etc.  All courses feature asynchronous discussion (i.e., messages are posted at any time and students can see messages previously posted by others).
