Your Support Team
Program Coordinators and Faculty Advisors
The Program Coordinators are the best resource for students pursuing a master's in Early Childhood Education or Elementary Education. Oftentimes the Program Coordinators serve as the student's faculty advisors.
Each student is assigned a Faculty Advisor. Your advisor will help you choose your courses and plan your Program of Study. They are a great resource to discuss your career and long-term plans as well as your goals for the program.

Academic Planning & Advising
Students should reach out to their advisor or the Graduate Student Services team to begin planning their program as soon as possible. We highly recommend meeting with a member of our team prior to registering for your first semester. The following information should guide your academic planning, but each student's experience is unique and it is important to review your plan with your advisor prior to making any final decisions.
Program of Study
Please review the appropriate Program of Study for your program. You will find all of the requirements for your degree listed.
Please see Programs of Study for more information on how to complete and submit your final Program of Study.
Depending on your graduate program, you may plan to complete your degree in as few as three semesters, however, some students choose to complete their degree in two years, over four to five semesters.
Course Planning Sheets
Each program provides students with a course planning sheet in order to help them make decisions for their course registration. Please note that these planning sheets are updated annually and the information for future semesters is tentative. Students should verify course information in Eagle Apps before each semester.
