Lead by Example. Teach with Care.

An educator talking with students

Your capacity as an educator is limitless, and our online Master of Education degree will empower you as a compassionate servant leader in your school and community.

This degree differs from a Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT), which is one of the routes we offer to becoming a teacher. If you're not sure which degree is right for you, contact your admissions counselor.
