The Master of Education (M.Ed.) degree in elementary education is open to candidates with a previous degree in education and those with a previous degree in a field other than education if they are participating in the Alternative Route to Licensure (ARL) program offered through the Washoe County School District. The program offers the opportunity to become a licensed teacher at the elementary and middle school levels (K-8). Some undergraduate prerequisite courses may be necessary, depending on previous course work.
Students must meet graduate school admissions requirements, maintain required GPA's, and fulfill the other requirements stated in the student handbook.
