MED-CRED - Master of Education (includes Teaching Credential) (45-62 units)

Concordia University Irvine offers a combined credential and master of education program that prepares students to demonstrate knowledge of theory and practice by making informed decisions leading to exemplary instruction for all learners. Students can apply 30-47 units of their 500- level credential coursework toward a master's degree in education.

The credential courses and student teaching requirements are the foundation for the M.Ed. degree. All students seeking a M.Ed. must complete the Credential Program and then add the advanced coursework and capstone experience. The total number of units in the M.Ed. is 45-62 (30-47 preliminary credential units and 15 advanced units beyond the credential). All coursework in the M.Ed. must be completed within seven (7) years of the first post-baccalaureate credential course.
