Graduate Programs — Elementary Education, M. Ed.
Students receiving the M.Ed. with a major in elementary education complete a 36 credit hour program that provides a solid knowledge base and background in the theoretical and practical aspects of the educational contexts in which teaching and learning occur. TCU graduate students gain expertise both in current pedagogy and in pedagogical content knowledge that contribute to more effective teaching. The program is designed to allow educators to deepen their understanding of young learners and to increase their skills for working successfully in today's schools or in other non-traditional or community educational environments. The program includes an emphasis on meeting the needs of diverse children in urban environments and a research experience that culminates in either a treatise or thesis.
Prerequisites include completion of a bachelor's degree and initial teacher certification. Details can be found in the TCU Online Catalog.
