The MEd in Measurement, Evaluation, Statistics, and Assessment is designed to address the current industry-wide shortage of individuals who can function effectively in educational research and applied settings by providing rigorous training in quantitative and qualitative methodologies. The MEd in MESA will address this pressing need for more trained professionals in these critical areas and will service the student population interested in upgrading their skills without having to complete a dissertation.

The primary objective of the program is to produce graduates who are well prepared to draw upon the specialized knowledge and skills acquired in the measurement, evaluation, statistics, and assessment courses they have taken, and function effectively in a variety of positions in research and applied settings. Two versions, one delivered online and the other face-to-face are offered.
