MA/MS in Education, General

Goucher's master of education serves practicing teachers who want deeper insight into learning and stronger leadership in schools and beyond. The program offers seven areas of specialization and prepares educators for work in classrooms, schools, local organizations and district administration. Students choose in-person, hybrid or online study in either a two-year or three-year format. Admission rests on the applicant's work and experience, an essay, recommendation forms and transcripts, with applications reviewed on a rolling basis. Graduates can later add a professional development certificate in a chosen specialization. Goucher offers this program through its graduate division, where prospective students can ask questions, request information and schedule a one-on-one conversation with admissions staff before applying. Details on courses, tuition and scholarships are published on the program's pages of the college website, and applications are submitted online through the college. Anyone weighing the program is encouraged to review those pages and compare the format, schedule and requirements with their own professional plans.
