Master of Arts in Teaching Program

Home > Graduate Home > Master of Arts in Teaching

The Master of Arts in Teaching program (M.A.T.) has been established to enhance the professional development of teachers who are committed to excellence in the classroom. The M.A.T. program is designed for individuals who are interested in pursuing either a master's degree or a master's degree and teacher certification.  The program is focused on improving expertise in content areas, effective teaching strategies, and enhancing the delivery of instruction to students. The goal of the M.A.T. program is to equip educators to become servant leaders within the school setting.

The graduate program will focus on developing teachers who will be skilled in leadership, curriculum design, and advanced instructional strategies.

The M.A.T. is a 36-hour, non-thesis professional degree which may be combined with other requirements to allow an individual to earn a master's degree and certification. Specializations in the Master of Arts in Teaching degree include:
