General Information

A master of science in education program requires a minimum of 36 credit hours. Some master's programs require more than 36 credit hours. Up to 6 credits may be undergraduate course credits at the 300 and 400 level. (Courses counted in a bachelor's degree may not be counted in a master's degree.) All programs require that some minimum number of credit hours be taken in the major area of specialization. (This minimum varies across programs, from 12 to 30 credit hours.) Some programs also have course requirements in the areas of research and foundations. There is no "general" master's program in education.

A minimum of 12 credit hours must be taken outside of the major program area for all master's programs. An exception is the master's degree in Instructional Systems Technology, for which a minimum of 9 credit hours must be taken outside the major. Specific course requirements for each program are listed in this chapter. Master's degree students must complete all program course work within seven years of matriculating in the program. Regulations governing all graduate programs in education are found in the section titled "Policies Governing Graduate Programs."

Return to General Requirements for Master's Programs

Faculty Advisor

An advisor from the major program area must be selected by the student or assigned by the department. Students should check with the department office at Bloomington or the Office of Student Services at Indianapolis for information about the assignment of faculty advisors. See the section titled The School of Education for a listing of program advisors.

Return to General Requirements for Master's Programs

Program of Studies

For each master's program there is a program outline form for use in planning the specific courses to be included in a student's program of studies. This form is available from the respective departmental offices at Bloomington, or from the Office of Student Services at Indianapolis. It must be completed, signed by the student's advisor, and submitted to the Office of Graduate Studies by the end of the first year of graduate work.

Return to General Requirements for Master's Programs

Master's Thesis

A master's thesis is an option in many program areas. Some programs encourage their students to carry out master's thesis research. Carrying out master's thesis research and writing a master's thesis are particularly valuable experiences for students who seek a scholarly career. Students who choose to write a master's thesis should incorporate appropriate research course work in their program of studies.

Students who opt to do a master's thesis must enroll in 3-6 credit hours of 599 Master's Thesis as part of the minimum 36 credit hour requirement for the degree. A master's research committee must be appointed. This committee consists of two or three faculty members. The thesis director must be from the major area of specialization.

The thesis study must include the gathering of information or data to answer a question that has been posed that is pertinent to the area of specialization of the student's major. A thesis manuscript must be written and submitted to the research committee. Upon approval by the research committee, the department chair, and the associate dean for graduate studies, two bound copies of the thesis must be filed with the Office of Graduate Studies at Bloomington or the Office of Student Services at Indianapolis.

The thesis manuscript must explain all aspects of the study, including the question posed, the rationale for the study, a literature review, the method and procedure for collecting information to answer the question, procedure for data reduction, synthesis and analysis, conclusions of the study, and educational implications. It must be typed or computer-printed on 8 1/2 x 11-inch paper. A nationally approved professional manuscript style (usually one used by a professional organization in the student's field) must be followed. The printing and figures must be in black ink on white paper. Figures must be on 8 1/2 x 11-inch paper.

The thesis must be defended in a public oral examination. The announcement of this examination must be submitted to the Office of Graduate Studies at Bloomington, or the Office of Student Services at Indianapolis, four weeks prior to the examination date for dissemination to school faculty. The committee members assess the quality of the manuscript and of the oral defense. They must approve the thesis in order for a passing grade to be awarded in 599.

Forms for the appointment of a thesis committee, for the acceptance of thesis proposal, and for the passing of the oral defense, as well as information about the format for the thesis manuscript, are available in Guide to the Preparation of the Master's Thesis in Education, available from the Office of Graduate Studies.

Return to General Requirements for Master's Programs

Practicum

Some programs require practicum course work; in other programs practicums are optional. Practicum course work focuses on experiences and activities in the field.

Master of Arts in Teaching, Bloomington

Another master's degree, offered through the University Graduate School, is the Master of Arts in Teaching (M.A.T.). Students in M.A.T. programs do not major in education. They major in a subject field (usually in arts and sciences). M.A.T. programs are useful for secondary teachers desiring to professionalize their teaching license or to earn an original teaching license in conjunction with a master's degree. Those seeking original licenses must meet these requirements (see section entitled Licensure Programs). Application to M.A.T. programs is not through the School of Education. . It is through the department in which the M.A.T. student is majoring. Two M.A.T. programs that are popular with secondary teachers are the Science and the Social Studies Programs (see University Graduate School Bulletin).

Program Office: IUB, Education 4008, (812) 856-8307.

This is a Bloomington program with some course work offered at Indianapolis. Graduates of the master's program enter positions in research agencies and consulting firms, public schools, foundations, industries, state education departments, or the military. Many master's students continue on to doctoral study.

In addition to meeting the standard School of Education admission requirements, students interested in pursuing a master's degree in educational psychology must have a minimum GPA of 3.0 in their last 60 credit hours of undergraduate course work.

A program planning form is available in the department office. Each student must choose an educational psychology faculty member as advisor or be assigned one. The master's program in educational psychology offers two tracks: a psychology track and an inquiry track. Both require 36 credit hours.

I. Psychology (9-12 cr.)
Courses are selected from one or more of the subareas of psychological studies, which include human development, learning and instructional psychology, and personality and social psychology (e.g., P512, P513, P514, P515, P516, P517, P525, P530, P540, P544, P545, P550, P566, P575, P590, P600, P623, P640, P650).

Students in the inquiry track must take 12 credit hours of course work in this category.

III. Curriculum Theory or Methods, or Educational Foundations (3 cr.)
Many foundations courses in education have an "H" prefix (e.g., history, philosophy, sociology of education). Curriculum theory courses have a "J" prefix, and methods courses may have several different prefixes, but are usually found in Curriculum and Instruction program areas.

IV. Electives (9-12 cr.)
9 credit hours, including those in III (above) must be taken outside of Educational Psychology. Elective courses must contribute to the integrity of student programs and must be approved by a program advisor.

ELEMENTARY EDUCATION TRACK

The Elementary Master's Program in the School of Education offers an advanced degree for experienced teachers seeking to enhance their knowledge and skill as teachers. (See www.indiana.edu/~elemed/general.html for a description of the program.) Core courses in the major include opportunities for students to explore current theories of learning and instruction, to engage in inquiry and reflection on teaching practice, to examine the social and cultural contexts of contemporary schools, and to analyze the nature and purposes of current perspectives on curriculum. Students also select courses in the advanced study of content areas relevant to elementary education. The program encourages candidates to pursue individual interests in depth through elective courses. Since most of the candidates in the program are practicing teachers, no additional formal field experience is required. Students, however, often use the course assignments as an opportunity to integrate current curriculum theory and teaching methods into their own classroom practices. As a culminating experience, students elect to write a thesis or complete a practicum project. The practicum option is often selected by students and is carried out as an action research project in their own classroom or school. Recent examples of such projects can be found at the School of Education on each campus.

Higher Education and Student Affairs (HESA)

Program Office: IUB, Education 4228, (812) 856-8362.
IUPUI, Education/Social Work 3150, (317) 278-5739.

Students interested in the study of higher education and working in a college or university may choose between two concentrations in the master's degree in student affairs administration and higher education. The concentration in student affairs administration emphasizes the study of college and university administration, student learning and development, assessment of campus environments, issues in student affairs, and communication skills and interpersonal relationships. The concentration in higher education emphasizes the study of higher education and is intended for professionals not working with students. Both concentrations introduce students to relevant theory, research, and practice related to college and university administration and preparation for entry-level and, for those with previous relevant experience, middle-management positions in institutions of higher education.

In addition to the School of Education admission requirements, applicants must interview with the faculty. Students come from diverse geographic locations and academic backgrounds. Some come to the program with experience in student affairs-related positions, and many come directly from undergraduate study. Most full-time students need two academic years and one summer session to complete the degree requirements. Students are required to begin course work in the fall semester. Because practical experience is valued, all students must obtain a graduate assistantship or be employed at least part-time in a related campus office while pursuing this degree. Students may take courses at either Bloomington (IUB) or Indianapolis (IUPUI).

Instructional Systems Technology (IST)

Program Office: IUB, Education 2276, (812) 856-8450

Instructional Systems Technology (IST) provides a master's degree program at Bloomington with an option for study at a distance. The field of IST involves the application of technological processes, including systems analysis and behavioral and cognitive principles, to the design, management, and improvement of instruction. The master's program prepares students to meet the increasing demand for instructional design and media specialists.

In addition to the standard School of Education admission requirements, the IST Admission Committee will evaluate previous course work and experience in relation to the applicant's goal statement. Since post-master's courses draw heavily on theoretical and research literature in the field, students who plan to continue for an advanced graduate degree should consult with their advisor about master's-level courses that will apply toward specialist and doctoral degree requirements.

Students entering the IST program are expected to exhibit experience with computers in three areas: (1) computer awareness and literacy, (2) basic applications, and (3) educational computing basics. Students deficient in any of these areas will be required to supplement their program with course work in instructional computing.

Students must complete a minimum of 36 credit hours, including the following:

I. Major (27 cr.)
R511 Instructional Technology Foundations I (3 cr.)
R521 Instructional Design and Development I (3 cr.)
R541 Instructional Development and Production Process I (3 cr.)
R561 Evaluation and Change in the Instructional Development Process (3 cr.)

Choose 15-18 credit hours from at least two of the following categories:
Instructional Analysis, Design, and Development (e.g., R620, R621, R625, or R626)
Instructional Development and Production (e.g., R547, R641, or R741)
Implementation and Management (e.g., R563 or R665)

II. Electives (9 cr.)
A minimum of 9 credit hours outside of IST are required. These may be taken inside or outside the School of Education. These courses must be relevant to the student's program focus and must be approved by a program advisor.

III. Portfolio
A portfolio must be developed and submitted to the faculty for graduation. The portfolio will represent two organized sets of information. The first set will include excerpts from student products developed for classes, extracurricular projects as part of graduate assistantships, and similar materials. The product excerpts are expected to tell the story of the student's skills. The second set of information will consist of items such as a completed program of studies, a statement of goals, professional resume, and a listing of professional references.

IV. Instructional Project
An instructional project must be developed. The project must address a real-world instructional problem and contain evidence of the student's successful application of at least three of the five components of the instructional development process. If this project is not done in a course for credit (e.g., R641, R625, R590, R586), then it must be submitted to the IST department for review and approval.

IUPUI, Education/Social Work 3127, (317) 274-6807.

Both the Bloomington and Indianapolis campuses offer, for regular and special education teachers, special education certification and master's degree programs in the areas of learning disabilities, emotional handicaps, and mild mental handicaps. Non-education majors also may earn a basic teaching license with special education certification at both campuses. For certification information, see the section titled Licensure Programs. Master's programs may be tailored to meet students' specific needs and interests. Students typically complete this degree as a sequel to earning certification in one or more areas of specialization.

The master's degree program on the Bloomington campus provides teachers and other practitioners with an opportunity to develop skills in teaching students who display problems in learning and behavior. The program offers teachers course work for improving and broadening their teaching skills, and unlicensed teachers an opportunity to earn certification in exceptional needs: mild intervention for teaching students with learning disabilities. The program offers courses in curriculum and assessment, teaching methods, personnel teaming and collaboration, assistive technology, and other aspects of special education.

Master's degree programs in severe disabilities and transition planning are available only at IUPUI. Since 2002, the Indiana University School of Education at IUPUI has offered a merged certification in both mild and intense intervention. Eligible candidates must be certified teachers.

Admission to the master's program in special education requires, in addition to meeting School of Education standards, an undergraduate grade point average of 3.0 and one year of full-time professional experience with children or adolescents (preferably in teaching or applied practice). To earn a master's degree in special education, students must complete a minimum of 36 credit hours. Depending on their interests and professional goals, students may specialize in teaching persons with learning disabilities, mild mental handicaps, emotional handicaps, or severe mental handicaps, or those in early childhood.
