and
MAED594 *Master's project (4) Or
MAED599 *Thesis (4)
*Student's may elect to conduct either a master's project (MAED594)
or a master's thesis (MAED599) to complete the
MAED program. A minimum of
four (4) credits is required for the project or thesis. Once a student
registers for MAED594 or
MAED599, he/she must continue to register for at
least one (1) credit of
MAED594 or
MAED599 every semester until the
project or thesis has been accepted by the graduate faculty.
Mathematics education and mathematics courses are scheduled over a three-
or four-year cycle in summers; education courses are available in summers
and during the academic year. When enrollments warrant, mathematics
education and mathematics classes are scheduled during the academic year.
Some courses are available via distance learning.
Students should ordinarily expect to take at least one mathematics course,
one education course, and one or two mathematics education courses each year
(six to nine credits).
