Pedagogy and Learning

Graduate Coordinator: Dr. Romelia Hurtado de Vivas

The interdisciplinary degree in pedagogy and learning is for teachers seeking a master's degree while advancing their knowledge and skills in two or more education disciplines. It may be useful for adding endorsement areas to a license or becoming highly qualified in another field. It is not an advanced elementary, secondary, or special education degree.

This degree requires nine hours of core courses as well as 15 hours in an emphasis area. You are also required to take 12 hours of advisor-approved elective courses.

All students must meet the graduate school requirements and complete a written comprehensive exam.

Emphasis areas:

• Bilingual Education
• Elementary Education
• Instructional Technology
• Reading and Literacy

An emphasis in educational foundations or special education may be available based upon qualifications.

Some educational administration and counseling courses may be accepted with the approval of an advisor in the administration/counseling program.

Contact any member of the Department of Curriculum and Instruction for your initial advisement. Romelia Hurtado de Vivas, the curriculum and instruction graduate coordinator, will assign you an advisor once you are accepted into the Graduate School and the Curriculum and Instruction graduate program.
