[RUME] Master of Science in Teaching program

[Natasha Speer]

If you know of anyone who might be interested in this program, please  
forward them the information below. Because of the emphasis on  
research and the thesis research requirement, the program is also a  
good launching point for people interested in pursuing graduate study  
in education research (a fair number of our graduates go on to  
doctoral programs in math or science education). Students are  
guaranteed two years of support as TAs or RAs.

currently accepting applications for Fall 2010. This  
interdisciplinary, content-rich, research-based program is appropriate  
for current and future secondary mathematics or science teachers as  
well as people interested in graduate study in mathematics/science  
education research.

The two-year program includes coursework (in education, educational  
research, and in your discipline), an education research thesis  
project, and the option of pursuing initial secondary teaching  
certification.

The program is designed for those with undergraduate degrees in a
