Master of Education - Teacher Leader

The University of Cincinnati Master of Education in Curriculum & Instruction program is designed to help teachers align their career goals with a degree that will help them transition from teachers into educating professionals. The program assists educators who are interested in planning, developing, implementing, and evaluating instructional programs in K-12 school settings. Dedicated to making an impact with their educational career, these leaders seek to make a solid difference in teaching as well as to enhance the educational experience of students. The online program empowers dedicated teachers with the confidence and communication skills necessary to bring classroom environments to new levels of success.

The University of Cincinnati's Master of Education in Curriculum & Instruction online program connects working educators with a dynamic community of dedicated professors, accessible research, and a devoted student support team. The University has gained a notable reputation for its outstanding faculty, research, novel curriculum, program accreditations, and competitive tuition and is regionally and NCATE accredited. Students can choose from four convenient start dates, receive relevant and comprehensive cohort-based curriculum, graduate in as little as two years with 45 quarter credit hours all while never stepping foot on a campus.

The Teacher Leader concentration is designed for those active classroom teachers who are interested in assuming a leadership role and added responsibility within their school (or building) but do not aspire to become a principal. The Teacher Leader curriculum prepares ambitious classroom teachers to inform curriculum decisions and learning strategies in their grade level or subject area, while also equipping them with the coaching skills necessary to act as leaders and influence their peers to be better teachers.  The program strives to develop reflective educators who can be change agents in the lives of their students, in their school, and facilitate learning communities for all stakeholders.
