Program Overview
A Master’s Degree in Education is a path toward new careers and/or professional advancement for many students. However, the program offers much more than professional preparation or “occupational payoff.” It offers a deep and careful study of the field of education and on-the-ground connections between coursework and fieldwork, between theory and practice, between ideal and implementation.
The MAEd Program at AUS gives a wide breadth of students the opportunity to achieve their diverse professional goals and to strengthen their educational commitments. The program focuses on curriculum, instruction, and social change and is flexible enough to meet the needs of a variety of educators. Its aim is to help those educators become more reflective, thoughtful, well-informed, analytic, scholarly, justice-oriented, and effective in the important work that they are doing. Another overarching goal of the program is to instill the confidence and skills to help educators become change agents in their own communities. Courses and assignments bring students out into the field, helping them to apply what they are learning to real-world contexts.
