Total Credits 166
MEdT Degree awarded (46 credits)**
Notes:
Courses in bold font are pre-requisites and requirements for the BA major in Hawaiian and/or MEdT. See below for a listing of the undergraduate HAW requirement and additional information about the two teaching methods courses required for the MEdT (STE 404G or STE 401 in Spring, year 4 and STE 404 (Alpha) in Fall, Year 5.)
HAW 331 & HAW 452 are the gateway courses for the pathway, which requires a grade “A” or better.
*Courses are double counted for both the BA and MEdT (9 credits): HAW 601 , HAW 604 , and STE 604B . For all three double-counted courses, the student must earn grades of “B” or better. Total credits for the BAM Pathway is 166, including these 9 double-counted credits. These courses are offered every year in the semesters identified above. See bullet below for additional about STE 604B . See page 2 on how these courses will be counted for the BA and MEdT.
†Courses are excess credits (7 total), which are part of the required course work for the MEdT: STE 600 , STE 602B , and a Research Methods course.
These courses are offered every year in the semesters identified above. Given the cohort nature of the MEdT, these three excess credit courses need to be taken together, in sequence during the first year of the graduate program.
**BAM students will take SPED 444 or SPED 445 and STE 404G or STE 401 as undergraduate electives and the MEdT program will waive these 6 credits as long as they pass
with a B or better. Therefore, there are 46 credits for the MEdT, but 40 of them will be take as a graduate student.
Students are highly encouraged to maintain regular communication with their academic advisor throughout the BAM pathway.
