Filed in Graduate Schools, HBCUs on March 21, 2014
The College of Education at Florida A&M University in Tallahassee has received approval to offer a new master’s degree program in curriculum and instruction.
Patricia Green-Powell, interim dean of the College of Education, stated, “This is an exciting time for the College of Education to address the needs of our school districts, as well as our student population. This is a result of area [K-12] superintendents and their school districts expressing to us their need to have highly-trained teachers in the area of curriculum and instruction.”
The university has six faculty members who have credentials to teach in this discipline. It is expected that 20 students will enroll in the new master’s degree within the first year.
Proud of you FAMU. I am a graduate of this fine institution. Continue to educate African American into the mainstream of society. Go Rattlers.
There truly is a need. This is great news! I look forward to following the degree program’s growth.
