Culturally and Linguistically Diverse Education Master's Degree, M.Ed.
CCU's Master of Education in Culturally and Linguistically Diverse Education is a comprehensive graduate program for current and aspiring educators and school professionals who are seeking skills in teaching English language learners, both in the United States and around the world.
Offered through our College of Adult and Graduate Studies, the program is designed to address the need for licensed teachers to be knowledgeable in teaching English to speakers of other languages and English as a second language (ESL). Most schools refer to their programs as “ESL,” but CCU’s online master’s program will prepare you for any culturally and linguistically diverse student and classroom environment. This is especially important as the population of multilingual learners continue to grow in the U.S. and more international opportunities for teaching come about.
