The master's program in secondary education is available at both Bloomington and Indianapolis. It prepares students for positions in middle schools, junior high schools, and high schools as professional classroom teachers, supervising teachers, or department chairpersons. To be prepared for any of these positions, the student must be eligible to hold an Indiana secondary school teaching license.
In addition to meeting the standard School of Education admission requirements, students interested in pursuing a master's degree in secondary education must have an undergraduate GPA of 3.0 or above. Applicants who do not meet this requirement may be admitted if they show evidence of successful professional activity, such as curriculum development or scholarship, or a paper that demonstrates competence with abstract thinking in the English language.
In addition to general curriculum studies of secondary education, tracks are available in mathematics education, music education (Bloomington only), or science and environmental education. The master's degree in secondary education requires 36 credit hours.
