Master
of Education Degree in Early Childhood Education
The master's degree program in Early Childhood Education
prepares professionals for teaching and administrative
positions in child care and preschool settings,
elementary schools, early intervention special education
programs, and colleges. The program is based on
knowledge and developmentally appropriate practices
for the teaching and learning of young children
(birth through 8 years of age). An interdisciplinary
program, it focuses on the connections of children,
family, educational settings, and community so essential
to a young child's total development and individual
diverse needs. The program addresses early childhood
issues using sound research practices and principles
and includes a focus on the graduate student's individual
professional needs. Courses are taught by graduate
faculty members from the elementary and early childhood
education, educational foundations, special education
and psychology departments.
