Gifted Education
The Master of Education in Gifted Education program prepares educators to identify and support intellectually gifted learners while fostering their social and emotional growth. By providing a strong foundation in the theories of gifted learning, the program integrates the latest research-based practices in curriculum development, innovative teaching strategies, and tailored identification methods. Students will also gain a deep appreciation for those with exceptional artistic and creative talents, ensuring they are well-equipped to excel in all aspects of gifted education.
