This concentration of the Early Childhood Education M.Ed. commonly appeals to individuals who have worked in the field and have a desire to further their own early childhood programs, become master teachers, and/or enhance their own leadership on behalf of young children and professionals who work with them. Individuals delve into issues and trends in the field, reconceptualize practice, understand and deconstruct/reconstruct policy understandings and complete their own independent research as inquiry exit projects or theses.

Master's students in the STEM Concentration learn to engage children in interdisciplinary instruction, integrating STEM to break down traditional boundaries. They also gain experience working with and integrating technology in classroom instruction.

The STEM Concentration includes courses in early childhood STEM education; electives in Mathematics Education, Science Education, and Educational Technology; and additional early childhood focused courses.

Are you working with international students and in search of research based solutions to learning and teaching? Build your intercultural competence to meet the demands of your district's growing or changing immigrant and refugee populations. This concentration is intended for those teaching in the early years or a related field and licensed PreK-5.
