The MS degree program prepares students to analyze and understand critical topics and issues pertinent to the field of community resources and development.

Completion of the MS degree Recreation and Tourism Studies on the average requires approximately two years of study. Students may select a thesis or professional option. The thesis option is a research-oriented degree and is recommended for students planning to continue graduate studies beyond the master’s degree. The professional option is intended for students seeking additional knowledge and expertise relevant to professional career development. Advising and direction in both options are under the direct supervision of an assigned faculty member.

Program Requirements: Professional Option

The professional option consists of 36 semester hours, including six hours of practicum (REC 580). A signed affiliation agreement is required to be on file with the graduate coordinator before registration. The purpose of the 300-hour practicum is to provide graduate students with in-depth agency-based professional experiences. The student committee consists of two school faculty members and one community/agency professional. At the end of the practicum, the student is required to submit a written description and analysis of the project and to present the results to the committee.
