The core courses for the Master of Science in Instructional Technology degree program are offered through various departments at FHSU. Your advisor will help keep you updated about changes not reflected in the course schedule.
This program offers a tremendous amount of flexibility as classes can be taken in 4, 8, or 16-week semesters. There is no particular order to take these classes; however, it is suggested not to take EDL 850 School Law and AEP 803 Educational Research at the same time. In addition, MIT 885 Instructional Technology Practicum is to be taken last and alone as the program comprehensive exam is tied to this class.
Academic Degree Maps are term-by-term sample course plans that specify milestones, courses, and special requirements that are necessary for facilitating on-time completion. Degree Maps are examples and are not prescriptive. Individualized choices such as concentration options, transfer credits, optional minors, advisory programs (certificates), etc. can alter the recommended coursework. Course offerings are subject to change. Students should consult with their academic advisors for additional guidance on course planning.
To determine courses to take in the directed choices (often listed as Program Elective Course) and directed elective course blocks see the overview tab for courses. To locate approved courses in General Education areas (Undergraduate Programs) see the general education section of the catalog.
The undergraduate course maps typically advise the most efficient route for students to complete the general education requirements. Courses that are required in the major may be listed as fulfilling relevant general education requirements. This will result in more open elective course hours in some maps than is listed on the degree overview page.
