Instructional Design and Educational Technology
Courses
The certificate provides a coherent set of three core graduate-level courses as well as the choice of two electives to allow students to cater to their individual career interest.
For course planning purposes, know that 631, 632, 633, and 636 are typically offered in the summer semester. EDP 643 is typically offered in the fall and EDP 583 and 637 are offered in the spring. Pending prior experience in teaching and instructional design, we recommend taking EDP 631 and 632 prior to other courses.
