with a Computer/Technology Endorsement.

Kent State University

Program of Study

All candidates for this Instructional Technology (ITEC) Master’s degree with an Ohio Computer/Technology Endorsement must complete a minimum of 36 hours of graduate level course work. This program includes 18 hours of core requirements, 15 hours of additional required coursework and 3 hours of culminating experience (see p. 2). There is now an Ohio Assessment Exam (OAE) that you must pass in order to obtain this licensure (see ITEC Website for details). Students who do not desire this endorsement can take the general Masters Degree, which includes electives and no required practicum. By the third semester of course work, students must plan their program and arrange with their advisor for signed approval of this program of study, which will then be filed in the graduate education office (White Hall 418). In order for graduation to be approved, the program of study must match the student’s transcript. To add the Computer/Technology Endorsement(#111770)to an existing teaching license, the student must complete an Initial License Application form, downloadable from the Instructional Technology Website, and submit the completed application to Erin Harwood ( or 330-672-0583) at the college's Office of Student Services in White Hall 304.
