Welcome to the Curriculum & Instruction Graduate Program. This program is jointly administered and delivered by faculty from three departments in the College of Education:

Several options are available for students seeking post-baccalaureate endorsements/certifications and advanced degrees based on their personal/career goals.

Masters of Arts in Education with a specialization in Curriculum and Instruction

This is a flexible masters program with a core of classes in assessment, curriculum diversity, instruction, and research. Elective hours can be selected from a variety offerings, or can be focused toward additional teaching endorsements. Current endorsements are available for Literacy, Early Childhood/Special Education, and English as Second Language. Students can choose to pursue a Plan A Thesis research project (leading to subsequent PhD study), or a Plan B research project.

MA in Education with a specialization in Curriculum and Instruction, emphasis in Teaching and Learning (MTL)

This option is a subset of the C&I masters, focusing specifically on classroom teaching, assessment, and action research. The core has more required courses, leaving fewer hours for electives. All MTL courses are offered via distance delivery methods within Wyoming, including on-line, face-to-face intensive weekends in a central location, compressed video, and audio. This option was developed in collaboration with K-12 teachers and is intended to meet the needs of in-service teachers who wish to remain in the classroom upon completion of the degree.
