Program Sheet

The Master's Program in Technology & Engineering Education is a balance of liberal arts, research, professional and Technology & Engineering Education courses leading to a Master of Science in Technology & Engineering Education degree. A minimum of 30 semester hours of study in approved graduate courses is required. The program is designed for flexibility in meeting the needs of the individual students. Programs of study are individualized through electives and independent study.

The primary purpose of the program is to develop the personal competencies of Technology & Engineering Education instructors so that they may successfully progress in their chosen field. Specifically, graduates of the program will:

Exhibit an acceptable degree of professional competencies and proficiency essential for meeting educational and social challenges Update their technical competencies and understandings in their major area of concentration Analyze and evaluate recent issues in their field, such as curriculum innovations and strategies for program improvement and/or implementation Explain how the relationship between their field and the academic disciplines affects the development of their students Identify and research problems in education and use the results for professional improvement Further their interest in and potential for educational leadership or other service in and outside their area of concentration

Many of the graduate students pursuing a Master's Degree in Technology & Engineering Education are employed as Technology & Engineering Education instructors in secondary schools; instructor/supervisors in industry education programs; instructors in technical schools; instructor/supervisors in government agencies; and Technology & Engineering Education instructors in overseas dependant schools.

The Master of Science in Technology & Engineering Education program consists of three different plans of study:

Plan A - 30 Credits with a thesis Plan B - 30 Credits and a comprehensive exam Plan C - 30 Credits with a special project
