Education Technology Graduate Programs
Student learning is constantly evolving and improving with technological advancements. Educational technology in schools has enabled teachers to enhance student engagement and better differentiate instruction to maximize student-centered learning. For K–12 learners, digital tools allow them to produce their own content while learning to communicate and collaborate effectively.
Molloy University’s graduate programs in educational technology prepare you to integrate effective educational technology to provide engaging, meaningful, and equitable learning opportunities.
Our EdTech programs are not only for K–12 educators. Teacher assistants working in technology labs and individuals working in the tech field who want to enter education will also find value in our programs.
About Our Ed Tech Programs
Our educational technology master’s programs provide the background needed to be New York State Certified as an educational technology specialist.
If you are seeking initial certification, you can apply to our 39-credit EdTech program, provided you hold a bachelor’s degree in any subject.
For certified teachers, the 36-credit educational technology master’s program can enhance your content area teaching and allow you to teach digital literacy technology curricula to K–12 students. You will also be qualified to provide professional development support to educators, helping them integrate educational technology into everyday teaching.
If you are a certified teacher who does not want to earn an additional degree, the Educational Technology Specialist Certification Pathway: Additional Classroom Teaching Certificate courses provide the background needed to earn a New York State Educational Technology Specialist Certification. If you do not want the certificate, these classes are an outstanding professional development opportunity.
All certificate candidates must meet specific content core and non-coursework requirements, such as the New York State Teacher Certification Examinations and fingerprint clearance. We will advise you on how to navigate New York State’s evolving certification policies.
