What examinations are required for the offered degrees and certification programs?
Students in the traditional M.Ed. program take a departmentally-administered master’s comprehensive examination at the end of the program coursework to complete the degree. Students in the NCELP program use a thesis option and produce an action research project to complete the program. All students must pass the Texas Examinations of Educator Standards (TExES) tests for principal and/or superintendent certification. Doctoral students must pass written and oral qualifying examinations to be advanced to candidacy status in the doctoral program.
