II, students will present their major research/projects/thesis in a
two-day TESOL symposium.
This curriculum has been developed in accord with international TESOL,
NCATE, Carolina TESOL, and SDPI guidelines, although the M.A. itself

A low cost, flexible plan for spreading the semester's cost
over four months is available through the ECSI Tuition Payment Plan. No interest or finance charges are

Master of Education
The master's degree programs in Elementary Education, Special Education (Learning Disabilities), and Special Education (Behavioral and Emotional Disabilities) are designed to serve individuals who already hold valid teaching licenses and wish to pursue a master's degree.
The master's degree programs represent a balance of courses distributed between 18 semester hours of professional studies and 18 semester hours of specialty studies. In teacher education programs, to which all candidates must be admitted, professional studies courses are the general core of shared courses taken by all candidates; specialty studies courses are the major area courses taken by candidates seeking licensure in a specific area.

- Generalist in Special Education (38-44 hours for initial

Behavioral and Emotional Disabilities)
The "Licensure Plus" M.Ed. Program is designed for individuals who have earned a bachelor's degree, who do not have a teaching license, and who are seeking Standard Professional License 1 in either elementary or special education.
These are two-step programs. The first step of "Licensure Plus" M.Ed. leads to the Standard Professional 1 (SP1) license. The second step of "Licensure Plus" M.Ed. leads to the M.Ed. and advanced licensure.
Note: The Licensure Plus Program takes longer to complete because candidates must FIRST earn initial licensure.
