Thesis | Professional Project
The research thesis or professional project will be a written work of publishable quality and will include documentation of literature review and evidence of extensive research to inform the work.
Concordia College faculty from a wide range of disciplines serve as advisors throughout the thesis process. The expertise and special interests of the faculty are matched to the topics in pairing cohort members with an advisor.
Continuing Registration (1 Credit - EDUC-698)
Continuing enrollment in Graduate Programs is used for registration after completion of all course requirements or when a student is not otherwise actively enrolled. This course may not be used to meet any program or graduation requirement. Students must be registered for at least one semester credit hour in the term in which the oral examination is scheduled.
The faculty at Concordia have been flexible and willing to help in any way they can. They reply in a timely manner to questions and provide relevant and current resources. This program has introduced new ideas and ways of teaching to me that I otherwise may not have known about, and I have been able to incorporate what I learn into my teaching. If you are looking into becoming a teacher this program will get you there and show you what teaching in the now and in the future should look like verses the traditional way you were taught.
