Education (MAEd)


Return to {$returnto_text} Return to: >Programs

Drew Hall 196, 651-523-2484

Designed to help educators meet the challenges of today’s schools and society, this program continues Hamline’s tradition of relevant curriculum, outstanding faculty, and personal attention. The curriculum builds on your knowledge and prior experience and links theory to practice. Instructional strategies promote reflection, engagement, and collaboration. At the heart of the curriculum is a set of guiding questions that stimulate thought-provoking discussion and professional growth. Elective credits are chosen based on personal and professional interests and needs. A Hamline certificate or license may be applied as electives.

The MAEd program is available on Hamline’s campus and in learning communities around the state. Both formats include an online or distributed learning component (for example: videos, field trips, or online discussions) to provide opportunities beyond the bounds of the traditional classroom. Learning communities meet as a cohort during the school year and take the core classes together.

MAEd Degree Requirements (Total 34 credits):


10 Elective Credits (selected by the student)


Half of the ten elective credits (5 credits) must be completed through Hamline University. Elective credits may be earned through 6000, 7000, or 8000-level Hamline University graduate courses or at other accredited institutions. Graduate work (either through Hamline University or another accredited institution) completed before admission into the MAEd program may be used towards elective credits, provided the transfer criteria are met. Transfer of prior credit occurs after successful completion of GED 8020. Most elective choices are made to meet students’ personal curriculum and instructional needs. A Hamline certificate or licensure program may be used to fulfill the elective requirement.

MAEd Application Requirements:


  1. Why have you decided to pursue graduate study?
  2. How will the MAEd meet your personal and/or professional goals?
  3. What outcomes do you expect as a result of the MAEd program at Hamline University?
  • Official undergraduate degree transcript.
  • Two letters of recommendation.
