Our program is designed for the working professional in mind. You can balance your full-time work and your personal life while getting your educational technology degree.

Practical Learning

Covers social and ethical issues for teachers and project-based, inquiry-based learning with technology. It’s not about the technology, it’s how to use it effectively in the classroom.

Small Classes

Courses are set up in a discussion format where you’ll share knowledge and applications for using various forms of technology in teaching with your instructors and classmates.

The program provides you with the knowledge and skills needed to successfully implement technology into K–12 curriculum and instruction.

You'll develop an in-depth expertise in emerging educational technology practices and build a foundation allowing you to serve as a technology leader in the classroom, school and district.

In addition, when you complete 24 hours of graduate courses in technology, you'll receive a New Mexico information technology coordinator endorsement.
