Overview

The MASE 4+1 option offers students a five-year integrated undergraduate and graduate program that prepares them to be both elementary teachers, as well as teachers of students with special needs. The MASE 4+1 option is ideal for students who are specifically interested in:

  • the academic rigor and opportunity to achieve both a Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education and Master of Arts in Special Education degree in just five years; and
  • obtaining both the NJ Elementary (K-6) Certificate of Eligibility with Advanced Standing (CEAS) and NJ Teacher of Students with Disabilities Endorsement.
About the Program

The MASE 4+1 option requirements consist of both coursework, distinct course-aligned clinical experiences and a full-year clinical practice internship in a variety of both inclusive and special education school settings.聽 Required courses and clinical internships may be taken during the traditional fall and spring semesters, summer sessions I and II, and winter session and online see Academic Calendars.

Students who enroll in the MASE 4+1 option complete all of the required undergraduate and graduate coursework and clinical internship during just five years. This can occur because students are able to complete three (3) graduate-level courses during years 3 and 4 of their undergraduate (BS in Elementary Education) experience, which means 12 credits are double-counted toward both degrees. The table below provides further details.
