These courses will provide a solid foundation in career and technical/workforce education. With 18 credit hours (six courses) in career education graduate courses and 18 credit hours (six courses) in a discipline-specific field of study, the student will be considered a subject matter expert in career and technical education AND a subject matter expert in a discipline-specific field.</p> <p>This program provides the flexibility of choosing electives for subject matter expertise in Career and Technical Education (CTE), in Educational Foundation, or in a discipline-specific graduate certificate that allows for a personalized degree program.</p> <br /> <p>The internship/directed-field experience course takes place in a face-to-face or web-based authentic setting in which students must apply, reflect upon, and refine knowledge and skills acquired in the program. The internship experience gives students insight and hands-on experience while being observed and mentored by a supervising teacher and UCF faculty member. In lieu of the internship, students may choose the research report course option, which may be helpful if considering an educational pathway to a doctorate.</p> </div>",
