Briar Cliff University currently offers a Master of Arts in Education (MAE) for teachers. It is a 34-hour non-thesis interdisciplinary program designed for those who teach at the elementary, middle, or secondary levels in either the public or non-public school systems. The goals of the program are to 1). develop teachers as critical thinkers and "facilitators" of learning and 2). form community with participants in the program. This will be accomplished through courses designed to deal with the students' membership in a constantly changing global community. Through papers and projects, students will apply these broader perspectives to their own local situations.
The curriculum includes the following twelve courses, all of which are three semester-hour courses, with the exception of Library Research, which is one semester hour: Library Research, Educational Research, Education in Society, School Law, Educational Leadership, Instructional Technology, Philosophy of Education, Psychology of the Learner, Current Theories & Practices of Effective Teaching, Exceptional and At-Risk Learners, Curriculum Issues in Education, and Seminar. The master’s program will be taught by faculty in the fields of education, philosophy, psychology, sociology, business and information services.
