College of Education Reorganization:

Effective July 1, 2011, the UNLV College of Education has been reorganized from six departments into three departments. The Department of Curriculum & Instruction, including majority of its faculty and programs, have been reorganized into the Department of Teaching & Learning.

The Curriculum & Instruction Department holds as its central mission the preparation and development of educators at all levels. The department ensures that its professional education programs are based on essential knowledge, established and current research findings, and sound professional practice.

We are interested in hearing your comments and suggestions. Please take a moment to share your thoughts.

Important Information for Masters Students

StopBeginning in the Fall of 2011, Masters students must be enrolled in at least 3 credits during the term in which they plan to graduate. In the past, an exception to this Graduate College policy has been granted for students enrolled in the C&I 1-credit culminating experience (CIG 697).

Students planning to graduate in the fall should save one last course to take with their culminating experience. Those who have no classes remaining, however, should contact your advisor and an arrangement can be made to exempt you from this requirement.
