Masters of Education and Principal Preparation
Preparing principals to work in public schools, the Principal Preparation Program brings together cohorts of prospective administrators who undertake course work and internships as a group. The cohorts form supportive networks that enable each participant to receive feedback about his or her development as a leader as well as to give feedback to other members of the group. These support networks tend to remain intact even after course work has been completed and graduates have assumed school leadership positions.

Master of Social Sciences
The Master of Social Sciences (MSS) is an interdisciplinary degree program in the social sciences. This program is designed to meet the needs of graduate students whose professional employment makes it desirable that they study two or more subjects within the social sciences to earn the master’s degree. Though many students have been public school teachers, candidates from other occupations may apply to the program if the study would be to their professional advantage. There will be a 20% tuition scholarship (excludes general fee) for students enrolled in this program, provided they maintain a “B” average. This discount would be applied after any outside source tuition discounts and applies only to the MSS courses in the cohort.
