I am interested in the educational leadership program. I am a science teacher, but was never received a ohio teaching license. I finished a MS in education from the University of Dayton, but never did the student teaching. My wife had been unemployed, and we could not afford for me to take the time off to do it. if I were accepted to your Educational Leadership Masters program, could I do the student teaching within that program? I have verything but that and methods left.
Hello Rob – The Educational Leadership internship is designed to give our students administrative experience, so it will not be able to be used as student teaching. I advise getting in touch with the Department of Education to explain to them your situation and see what they suggest as the best way for you to earn your teaching license. We’ve spoken in the past, so I will follow up with you to assist in any way I can. In the meantime feel free to contact one of our Enrollment Advisors if you have any other questions at 800-226-0075.
