Mathematics Education
For the STEM MA with a concentration in Mathematics Education, there are 4 required courses (12 credits hours). In consultation and with approval from your faculty advisor, select 5 courses from the Thematic Course Categories to customize your learning (15 credits). For instance, you may want to customize your Thematic Course Categories selections for elementary or secondary. Finally, take a research methods course (3 credits) for a total of 30 credits. The Concentration Capstone Course listed below is not an additional 3 credit hours; rather it is a project which takes place within one of your core MTED courses.
