FGCU’s rigorous graduate programs emphasize the consultative, supervisory and transdisciplinary skills needed by educators and industry leaders who aspire to assume management roles in PK-12 schools, higher education, or the public sector and private industry. In addition, candidates are provided for those seeking to advance their knowledge of newest learning technologies.

Whichever program you choose, one of our graduate degrees will help you advance your career, allowing you to take on larger roles in your organization. As the region’s only comprehensive public university, FGCU offers a post master’s degree in which you can explore current research and best practices as a fully skilled practitioner in instruction or leadership. The rigorous dissertation process provides individualized opportunities to discover those ‘burning questions’ you may have about policy, practice, and learning design.
