The Florida State Curriculum and Instruction program reflects the interdependent nature of contemporary professional education in which subject content and research questions transcend single areas of concentration and demand interdisciplinary collaboration. Graduates earning a Curriculum and Instruction degree possess a dual benefit – they retain an individual content major on their transcript and attain a Curriculum and Instruction designation on both their diploma and transcript.

Finally, graduates earning a degree in Curriculum and Instruction will possess a rigorous degree structure that will expand employment potential. Coursework for the master’s, specialists and doctoral degrees is comprised of core program elements and a major field of study.
