The purpose of the Master’s of Education in Secondary Education is to provide a “seamless” program of initial teacher preparation for students completing Bachelor’s degrees at UA South or another accredited four-year institution. Because the program relates educational theory and methodology to pre-service practice, no thesis is required in this program; instead, a participant research project is intended to document student efforts to develop professionally.
The M.Ed. in Secondary Education is conceived as a “fast-track”, one-year professional program that allows students holding bachelors degrees to meet certification standards and earn an M.Ed. in middle and secondary education in as little as twelve months. As a “cohort” program, students may take all their classes together beginning as soon as the summer after completing baccalaureate requirements. The program, however, is flexible enough to permit multiple entry points during the academic year. Students meet internship requirements by working in area high schools and middle schools during the entire academic year.
IN COCHISE AND SANTA CRUZ COUNTIES, THERE IS AN ALTERNATIVE SECONDARY PATH TO CERTIFICATION. FOR MORE INFORMATION, SEE http://uas.arizona.edu/?p=acad_certification_BCASPC.
