Master of Education in Teacher Leadership (M.Ed.)

The Master of Education in Teacher Leadership is a graduate program of Rowan University’s CAEP accredited College of Education. It is designed for teachers who want to develop and hone their leadership skills but wish to remain in the classroom. The program approaches leadership from the perspectives of exemplary teaching, continuous learning for all, a need to balance change with stability and the importance of peaceful existence in a diverse community of learners. To that end, teachers will enhance their abilities to lead not only in their classrooms, but also in the school at large by working with curriculum, becoming mentor/master teachers, developing new programs, and through a variety of other activities that improve schooling for all children.
