Overview

Students electing the Interdisciplinary Teaching can choose to add a K-8 Special Education Interventionist, a 6-12 Special Education Interventionist endorsement from University of Tennessee Martin, or an endorsement in gifted and talented education.

Overview

This degree program is designed for student's holding bachelor's degrees who would like to teach in a specific discipline or academic program not found in the other master's level concentrations. One popular example is geoscience education, which is a specialized degree supported by the Department of Agriculture, Geosciences and Natural Resources to train future K-12 teachers in geography, geology, earth science and other areas.

Students choosing one of these three options must hold a valid Tennessee teaching license in order to obtain the endorsement. Students can also choose a discipline outside of the Department of Educational Studies for study (includes courses from several disciplines within one department).

Educational Leadership, Reading, and Counseling disciplines are not available; however, other Educational Studies disciplines may be available with prior approval from Graduate Coordinator/designee from the College of Education, Health, and Behavioral Sciences, as approved by CEHBS Graduate Committee.

Eighteen hours of subject area electives are decided upon in consultation with the student’s adviser from the differing discipline/department and the Graduate Coordinator/designee from the College of Education, Health, and Behavioral Sciences.

No more than three hours of 500-level subject area electives may be applied toward a degree. A minimum of six hours of 700-level subject area electives must be taken. Only six semester hours of workshop credit may be applied toward a degree.
