Master's in Computer Education and Technology Online
Program Code: ME6506
The master's degree program in Computer Education and Technology (CET) is designed in an online format to bring flexibility and convenience to students.
The program is nationally recognized by the International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE). Courses in this program can also be applied toward the Professional Instructional Design Certificate and the PhD in Instructional Technology.
The program serves students with a wide range of professional goals:
- Educators who hold a professional teaching license in another field and wish to complete a master's of technology and/or seek a multi-age endorsement in Computer Technology. The program prepares technology facilitators to use technology more effectively in their teaching and to become technology leaders in their school or district.
- Individuals with technical and training backgrounds who wish to pursue work in instructional design, web design, business, and/or community college.
- Those wishing to pursue advanced preparation in Computer Technology to be used in K-12, community college, business, or higher education.
A good example of a job title for students with this major is training and development manager. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics' Occupational Outlook Handbook, the job outlook for training and development managers is bright and expected to grow faster than the average for all occupations.
The underlying philosophy of the CET program is that computers and technology should be integrated into the curriculum or organization as part of the total process of teaching and learning. Our goal is to provide students with the knowledge, skill, and experiences to perform successfully as leaders in computer education and technology-related fields.
Students with licensure may choose to obtain a multi-age endorsement as part of their master's degree studies.
New students are admitted in Fall or Spring semester. The application deadline for Fall Semester 2022 is July 15 and classes begin Aug. 22, 2022.
