Thesis

The Master of Education degree requires a final project (EDUC 5900 - Culminating Experience, or a substitution, as directed by your advisor) as a component of several of the degree concentrations. A student may choose to meet this requirement by exercising the Thesis Option (EDUC 5999 - Thesis). The thesis must be approved by the student’s advisor and a formal prospectus submitted to the graduate committee for approval prior to writing the paper.
