You&#8217;ll expand your academic content base and teaching talents by becoming informed about the latest research, curricula, methodologies, and theories in science education. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the master&#8217;s in Science Education program, you&#8217;ll advance your understanding of the science education that connects knowledge of content, teaching practices, student learning, and curriculum. You&#8217;ll learn to interpret research in science education and apply it to the design of teaching materials, including addressing issues of access, equity, and diversity when teaching students science. While there is an option to obtain teacher licensure, this master&#8217;s degree is geared toward educators who already have an initial license or do not wish to obtain one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-dark-color has-text-color has-text-align-center\">Dates &amp; Deadlines<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column date-deadline\">\n<h6>Spring &amp; Fall 2024 <\/h6>\n\n\n\n<h4>Aug 15, 2023<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Application Open<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column date-deadline\">\n<h6>Spring 2024 Semester<\/h6>\n\n\n\n<h4>Dec 15, 2023<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Application Deadline<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column date-deadline\">\n<h6>Fall 2024 Semester<\/h6>\n\n\n\n<h4>Jan 15, 2024<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Deadline to Receive Priority Scholarship Consideration<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column date-deadline\">\n<h6>Fall 2024 Semester<\/h6>\n\n\n\n<h4>Aug 1, 2024<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Application Closes<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-primary-background-color has-background person-spotlight\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container\">\n<h2 class=\"has-tertiary-color has-text-color has-text-align-center\">Featured Faculty<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Faculty for the EdM in Science Education represent broad experiences in science education.
