Thesis or Final Field Study requirement:
M.S. students complete a Thesis, according to university standards and requirements. M.Ed. students complete a very similar "final field study". Both the Thesis and Field Study are formal summaries of scholarly investigation involving original data or re-analysis of data originally collected for other purposes. The Thesis or Field Study are formally evaluated by the student's committee and must be presented in the student's final oral defense
*Note #1:
The Master's program may be taken as preparation for the Doctoral program or as a terminal degree program. For those who take it as a terminal degree program the preparation provides sufficient theory, knowledge and skill for significant contributions to bilingual education in a variety of applied settings
*Note #2:
Texas A&M University College of Education will offer the Master of Education in Educational Psychology in Hispanic Bilingual Education via distance education in four high need areas throughout the state of Texas. Courses offered via instructional telecommunication follow all Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board guidelines for off-campus and for instructional telecommunications courses:1. these courses are determined and scheduled by the appropriate academic departments;
2. they are taught by approved graduate faculty;
3. they require identical work of students; and
4. they are structured and evaluated according to identical criteria as the on-campus sections.
These courses differ only in the fact that they are delivered via distance learning technology. School districts, community groups, and economic development councils in the State rely on Texas A&M University as a source for this program.
