The Doctor of Education in Education with a concentration in Mathematics Education
(EMAT) at the University of Wyoming will shape practitioners, like math instructors,
into leaders and innovators in mathematics education. Graduates of the program are
equipped with cutting-edge applied research skills and mathematics pedagogy expertise. A primary goal of the program is to ensure that all of its graduates are capable
of providing leadership in mathematics education to people of all backgrounds.
Aligned with the Carnegie Project on the Education Doctorate (CPED), students in the
program explore questions about contemporary educational issues within a research context.
They learn how to combine theory with systematic inquiry to solve problems of practice and support meaningful
learning experiences for all students, particularly those in historically marginalized groups (e.g., economically disadvantaged
people).
Applicants to the EMAT Concentration will identify a preliminary problem of practice
that they hope to examine and solve as a candidate in the program. You will work in
cooperation with educational organizations to apply your creative and innovative solutions
to address the problem of practice.
Courses in the program are offered online, allowing you to pursue the Ed.D. in mathematics
education while you continue in your current position. Learn and bond with the same
group of students during the course of your Ed.D. studies– our program is cohort-based. Learn more about the benefits of gaining your Ed.D. degree in education at UW.
