School of Education
Preparing Learner-Focused, Adaptive, and Holistic Teachers.
The Master in Teaching (MIT) program prepares post-baccalaureate students with strong academic credentials who seek the first level of teacher certification and who demonstrate a high aptitude for scholarship and teaching at the elementary and secondary levels.
The M.Ed. degree is a two-year, continuing education program for teachers with Washington State Teacher credentials. Northwest University offers a M.Ed. in Curriculum and Instruction with three concentrations: Professional Certificate (ProCert) Mentoring, Instructional Leadership, and English Language Learning (ELL).
A Word from the Dean
Teachers contribute significantly to the growth and development of children and youth. Their efforts are a great way to invest in the future of our nation and our world. Northwest University offers graduate programs for both the beginning and the experienced teacher.
The Master in Teaching (MIT) is for college graduates who have decided they want to enter this vital profession. The Master of Education (MEd) is for experienced teachers, who are seeking new professional knowledge and refined instruction skills to positively impact how students learn in their classrooms. Both Master's degrees build on many years of professional experience and knowledge of best practices.
You will learn from experienced professors, even more than that, you will learn from a Christian perspective.
