ABOUT THE MASTER OF SCIENCE IN EDUCATION (MSE) IN EDUCATIONAL DIAGNOSTICS (LICENSURE)

The Master of Science in Education (MSE) in Educational Diagnostics (Licensure) program prepares candidates to perform testing in the areas of intellectual functioning, achievement, and behavioral screening.

This program prepares New Mexico candidates who are interested in acquiring a diagnostician’s license. Candidates from other states must contact a representative of their state’s department of education to determine if this degree program will be accepted for licensing purposes.

The College of Education at University of the Southwest operates under the auspices of the New Mexico Public Education Department (NMPED) that uses the standards developed by the Council for the Accreditation of Educator Preparation (CAEP) to evaluate education programs.
