Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT)

It has been said that teaching is the noblest of professions – we couldn’t agree more. Our MAT program not only prepares students to be educators, they become motivators and role models - the kind of teachers with the ability to change the course of a student’s life. The MAT program combines current research and educational theory with practical field applications, along with a core curriculum that fully prepares graduates to meet state licensure requirements in elementary, secondary, special education, and PK-3.

Master of Science in Counseling Psychology (MSCP)

If you ask any MSCP alum why they chose this course of study, you’re likely to hear that there is nothing more rewarding than helping others overcome obstacles and realize their individual worth. Chaminde’s Master of Science in Counseling Psychology program prepares you for doing just that. The curriculum is designed to graduate counselors skilled in helping children, youth, and adults adjust to life's challenges and recognize their potential. While the program provides a comprehensive base of knowledge for any counseling career, the coursework was developed primarily for those wishing to enter practice as school counselors, mental health counselors, or marriage and family counselors.

Master of Science in Forensic Sciences (MSFS)

In the pursuit of justice, evidence is everything. Finding, preserving, and evaluating that evidence is as much an art as it is a science. At Chaminade, our Master of Science in Forensic Sciences (MSFS) program prepares students for this vital line of work by combining rigorous coursework with independent research and fieldwork. Our comprehensive curriculum was developed to enhance the skills of professionals already working in the field, as well as prepare students for employment in the forensic sciences or future graduate studies.
