Master of Arts, Teaching

The MAT program is an online alternative certification and master’s program, which prepares mid-career changers, or recent graduates who have earned a bachelor’s degree in a content area outside the field of education to fulfill their dream of becoming a teacher. The program also collaborates and partners with K-12 districts throughout the state to supply them with highly qualified, certified teachers in high-need areas. The accelerated track allows students to complete the program within 14 to 20 months.

Earn while you learn! Students can be hired by school districts as the teacher of record and receive a first-year teacher salary while they complete coursework.
