Master of Education

Prepare tomorrow’s leaders

Master of education degrees at the University of Richmond

Meet the challenges of today’s classroom and train the leaders of tomorrow, or even transform the future of education, with a master’s degree in education (M.Ed.) from the University of Richmond School of Professional & Continuing Studies.

We offer two Master of Education degrees.

• In our M.Ed. in Curriculum & Instruction, you’ll gain a fresh perspective on teaching and renew your desire to motivate and inspire students.
• In our M.Ed. in Educational Leadership & Policy Studies, you’ll prepare to become a more influential leader inside and outside the classroom.

Study with fellow educators and experienced leaders.

In our graduate education classes you’ll debate topics and learn new theories, share teaching strategies and swap classroom stories with peers and experienced faculty. These peers will serve as a professional development and support network for your continued teaching and leadership roles.

Apply what you learn.

Interactive, experiential learning allows you to immediately apply what you learn to your own classroom, school and community. Then learn from your own experiences through intentional reflection and application.
