Master of Education
 Are you searching for a vocation
where you will make a difference? Consider teaching. The M.Ed. program at Milligan is designed for someone whose undergraduate degree is not necessarily in education.
PROGRAM DESIGN
Milligan's M.Ed. program offers both
the Initial Licensure and Advanced Program options.
Initial Licensure
The Initial Licensure allows you to complete your master's and
teaching licensure in as few as 14 months.
Advanced Program
The Advanced program is for already-licensed teachers who want to
add endorsement areas or prepare for board certification. Course
offerings are scheduled in a summer, fall, spring, summer sequence.
However, you may begin at any time and pursue the program completion
at a less ambitious pace to meet your scheduling needs.
OUTSTANDING REPUTATION
Milligan's education program has a reputation for producing quality
teachers with a strong sense of dedication to their students. We
have partnerships with most area school systems and thousands of our
graduates are serving as teachers, coaches, counselors, and
administrators in schools across the United States.
CARING FACULTY & PERSONAL ATTENTION
At Milligan, graduate courses are
taught by professors with doctorates in education or related fields,
or by individuals with master's degrees who have been recognized as
outstanding in elementary or secondary teaching. The teaching staff
includes faculty with a wide variety of experiences in education in
both urban and rural settings.
Graduate courses at Milligan are small,
allowing professors to interact closely with students for individual
attention and supervision throughout their program. Our faculty are
role models and mentors, and they will challenge you and stretch
your mind and spirit.
CHRISTIAN WORLDVIEW
Today's schools are challenged as never before. Faced with increasingly diverse student bodies and phenomenal technological change, contemporary schools need to provide quality services for all children.
Now more than ever, children need teachers who are committed to excellence in the classroom and to Jesus Christ. It is our belief educators prepared in such a way will make a difference in the school and community where they live and serve.
"The Teacher as a Reflecting and Caring Person," the theme of our department, is interwoven throughout our program. Our primary goal is to produce caring and reflective professional educators who will affect the lives of children in a markedly positive manner.
