This track also offers a Teacher Preparation Program (TPP), leading to
New Jersey State Teacher`s certification. The course and other
requirements for TPP depend on individual cases. Details can be
obtained upon consultation with the program director.
With the
approval of the graduate program director, courses from one track may
be used to meet the requirements of the other, and up to two
undergraduate courses (6 credits) may be taken and counted toward the
required 30 credits. A student may transfer up to 12 credits from
graduate courses taken at other institutions in which a grade of B or
better was obtained. No more than 9 credits with grades of C+ or
lower may be used in meeting the requirements of the master`s degree.
The program is designed to be completed in two and a half years of
part-time study but also may be pursued at a slower pace. A full-time
student can complete the program in one academic year plus one summer
by writing a thesis or enrolling in independent study courses.
