Education Graduate Degrees

Teachers who earn a Master's degree in Curriculum & Instruction want to remain in the classroom and strengthen their teaching abilities and instructional capacity. Educators also gain advanced knowledge of how curricula are selected and evaluated so that they can use this knowledge more effectively in their classrooms. Curriculum and Instruction graduates create new programs at their schools, become subject matter chairs, and organize and lead professional development training for colleagues. Graduates use this degree to prepare them for careers more aimed at administration and leadership, such as a curriculum coordinator position or an instructional coach. In Georgia, most districts offer higher earning potential for students with a Master's degree and a certification in Curriculum and Instruction.
