Education Specialist
Purpose
The goal of the Educational Specialist (Ed.S.) program is to prepare students with advanced skills in instructional technology beyond those acquired with the master's degree. Students with this degree are prepared to assume leadership positions in industry, business, education, government and private organizations.
The program focus is practical and applied but grounded in theory. Students may choose from four areas of emphasis: interactive instructional tool building, advanced interactive multimedia design, adult and distance education or evaluation.
This program involves coursework, independent study, practicum experiences and a final project.
