The M.A. in English Teaching Option offers a balance of advanced studies in composition, linguistics, literature, critical theory and pedagogy.
Graduate students have two options for completing the M.A. in English Teaching:
Strand One is designed to extend and enrich the professional development of experienced middle school and high school teachers of English language arts.
Strand Two is designed for individuals who have a B.A. in English or related field and who wish to be licensed to teach English at the secondary level (grades 5-12) while they work on the M.A. in English Teaching Option.
With additional coursework, field experiences, and student teaching, individuals may receive secondary english licensure and an M.A. in English. After admission to the M.A. in English (Teaching Option), Graduate students must apply to the Teacher Education Program in Curriculum & Instruction in order to take licensure courses at the graduate level. Strand Twois also appropriate for individuas who wish to learn teaching pedagogy but do not need secondary licensure.
The English Teaching program is also the home of the Montana Writing Project, an affiliate of the National Writing Project, which is dedicated to improving the teaching and learning of writing at all grade levels.
Graduates from the M.A. in English Teaching Option pursue opportunities in secondary education and/or go on to leadership positions in middle and high school English departments and/or curriculum programs. Candidates may apply for admission throughout the year. In a typical year, 7 - 10 students enter the program; rates of acceptance are higher than for the other two programs.
