The Graduate Technology and Education program leads to a Master of Science in Education degree in Technology and Education.  Students who enroll in the program have the option of completing the program in a face-to-face classroom setting or combining traditional classroom courses with distance learning courses.

The program prepares technology leaders for education, business and industry and does not lead to teacher certification.   Courses are sequenced to develop competencies necessary for program planning and development, staff development, assessment and evaluation, and facilities management. Program completers typically serve in leadership positions as technology trainers, directors, coordinators, and specialists. The program is aligned with standards set forth by the International Society for Performance Improvement (ISPI).
