Curriculum, Instruction and Technology

Master of Science in Education with specialization in Curriculum, Instruction and Technology degree candidates complete this specialization using the program outline posted below. Curriculum, Instruction and Technology is offered through  the National Graduate Teacher Education Online Program (NGTE).  Students entering this specialization are assigned to a cluster/cohort group and take two courses per term.

Master of Science Degree in Curriculum, Instruction and Technology (CIT)
The M.S. in education with specialization in Curriculum, Instruction, and Technology is designed for educational professionals who seek site or district leadership roles in curriculum planning and development with an emphasis on the use of technology to effect change.  Upon completion of the program, participants should have gained experience in using educational research, learning theories, and instructional technology to enhance student achievement. Integration of technology into classroom instructional activities, district-level curriculum planning and implementation, and instructional technology leadership at all levels are the program focus. 

Nova Southeastern University is fully accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS). NGTE programs are aligned with appropriate national and professional standards. Because our students come from many states as well as areas outside the United States, these programs are not developed in accordance with any particular state certification requirements.

NGTE students should contact their state department of education for guidance in obtaining certification or licensure, or contact their local school district for approval in fulfilling district-level incentive programs. Certification requirements vary by state and district. Completion of an NGTE program of study does not guarantee certification.
