WELCOME TO THE SCHOOL OF EDUCATION

Welcome to the School of Education at California Southern University! CalSouthern’s School of Education offers two undergraduate programs and a graduate program. At the undergraduate level, CalSouthern offers an Associate of Arts in Liberal Studies and a Bachelor of Applied Science, while at the graduate level, CalSouthern offers the Master in Education (M.Ed) with concentrations in Counseling in Education, Curriculum and Instructional Design, and Organizational Leadership and Management. Keep in mind, the online Master in Education degree program is not a teacher certification program and does not lead to initial teaching/administrative licenses.

In the M.Ed program, there are multiple learning opportunities for learners to become well-rounded in educational theoryto-practice strategies. The program integrates four main themes throughout all the coursework: educational theory, current research, educational practice, and service for the public good. In the program, learners will interpret educational theories, apply their understanding of current research, and utilize their skills to make informed decisions in complex and dynamic settings.

Warm Regards,

Steven Hess, PhD Interim Dean, School of Education
