Master
of Arts in Teaching
The Master of Arts
in Teaching program offered by the Richard W. Riley
College of Education in conjunction with the
Department of English encourages students to acquire
the broad range of literary knowledge and language
arts skills that characterize successful Secondary
School English teachers. The program requires that
you complete at least 15 hours in ENGL, ENGE, or
WRIT courses at the 500-600 level, in the areas
specified by the state of South Carolina and the
National Council for Accreditation of Teacher
Education (NCATE) for initial certification. These
hours include content courses, teaching methods, and
field experiences. These 15 hours form the Content
Area Core of your program. The Department's Graduate
English Education Advisor will evaluate your
transcript and help you select the appropriate ENGL,
ENGE, and WRIT courses to meet these requirements.
