Master of Science in Mathematics Education
The Master of Science in Mathematics Education (MS MATHED) degree program is an academic track program primarily intended for upper elementary and high school mathematics teachers who desire to improve their teaching skills in the K to 12 school levels, produce significant research, and assume leadership in mathematics education initiatives by increasing their knowledge of mathematics content and pedagogy, exposing them to the rigors of conducting meaningful, scientific research, and orienting them to an efficient ecology for mathematics education, and capacitating them to resolve problems and issues that hamper mathematics learning in their schools.
In this program, students are capacitated through their courses towards the development of a scientifically sound thesis that integrates their understandings of issues in mathematics education such as language, curriculum design, affect and learners' contexts, instruments for teaching and assessing, and teachers' professional development.
