“We are thrilled that our programs continue to receive national recognition,” said Dr. Sandra Lemoine, dean of the College of Arts, Education and Sciences. “This can be attributed to the hard work by our outstanding faculty who develop and implement exceptional online programs that students and professionals can rely on to further and enrich their professional careers.”

The site’s ranking considers the quality and affordability of regionally accredited schools.

Ranked number six of the eight programs featured, the online master’s program in curriculum and instruction offers a unique feature—eight different concentrations. The concentrations include early childhood education; elementary education; English as a second language (ESL); reading; special education (academically gifted); special education (early intervention); special education (educational diagnostics); and special education (mild/moderate disabilities).

“The diversity of concentrations offered truly make ULM a great choice for those seeking a quality Curriculum and Instruction program,” the site states.
