Program Overview
The M.Ed. in Urban Education is a 33 credit hour, fully online degree program designed to prepare education professionals who are committed to delivering high-quality, culturally relevant/sustaining instruction and services that meet the needs of students in increasingly diverse, urban school systems and communities across the United States. UNC Charlotte is particularly focused on providing professionals with practical tools and resources that increase multicultural competence and awareness. To achieve its objectives, the program aims to equip teachers, administrators, paraprofessionals, counselors, and those alike- who currently work or aspire to work in, or with, urban schools- with practical approaches to implementing evidence-based best practices that improve the educational experiences and academic outcomes of racially, linguistically, socioeconomically, and culturally diverse populations.
