Request for Question Clarification by easterangel-ga on 11 Oct 2002 13:27 PDT

Hi! Thanks for the question. Just to clarify:

1. Would master's degree in Instructional technology count as well.
They seem to go hand in hand.

3. When you say private graduate schools so all state universities are
out of the question?

Yes and yes to both your questions. Thanks.

Dear rmbpearson,

  I will give you a list of places, both directly and indirectly
offering degrees in Instructional design.  You could have found all of
these yourself at www.gradschools.com by using "search by program" at
the first menu, entering "Education," and using "select a subject,"
entering "Instructional Design" at the second menu.  But I will look
up tuition for all of these things.

Degrees that seem definitely directly correlated to your question:

Philadelphia University: M.S. in Instructional Technology.  No cost
info is posted, but you can inquire at the Admissions place at
215-951-2700, or online by emailing Gradadm@PhilaU.edu or filling in
the "request information" form at
http://www.philau.edu/graduate/gradreply.html.
Site: http://www.philau.edu/msit/

Purdue University, Calumet: Master of Science, Instructional Design. 
seems to be in "reevaluation."  Graduate non-resident fee is $370.25
per credit hour.
site: http://education.calumet.purdue.edu/grad/programs.htm#ms /
http://education.calumet.purdue.edu/grad/hand1.htm#ms

Seton Hall University: M.A. program in Instructional Design and
Technology.  $649 per credit hour w/ varying University Fees depending
on student status.
http://education.shu.edu/academicprograms/edstudies/grad_instruct_design.html

Syracuse University: M.S. in Instructional Design, Development &
Evaluation.  Cost not found by me online, but the Office of Financial
Aid is reachable at 315-443-1513.
http://idde.syr.edu/

Degrees which do not directly have "Instructional Design" in their
title but are almost certainly applicable:

Alliant International University: online Master of Arts in Education
degree with a concentration in Technology and Learning program.  (An
Ed.D is also offered with higher charge.)  $350 per credit.
site: http://www.alliant.edu/gsoe/tl/techlearn.htm

Alverno College: Master of Arts for Teachers and Trainers, w/ a
special field in Instructional Design.  $399 per credit.
site: http://www.alverno.edu/prospective_stu/instructional_design.html

California Lutheran University: Master of Arts in Curriculum and
Instruction with a special field in Educational Technology.  $390.
site: http://www.clunet.edu/Admission/Graduate/SchoolEducation/MasterArtsDegree/CurriculumInstr/EducationalTech.html

Drexel University: M.S. in Science of Instruction.  (there only seems
to be one course module specifically focusing on Instructional Design,
however.)  Their tuition costs are on a site that is currently "under
construction" http://www.drexel.edu/depts/compt/bursar.html), but I'm
sure you could call the Bursar's Office (215-895-2833) or the
financial aid office (215-895-2537) to find out the costs of this M.S.
site: http://www.drexel.edu/academics/teachered/degrees.html#M

Gannon University: M.Ed. in Educational Computing Technology.  $320
per credit plus a $175 per semester University Fee.
site: http://www.gannon.edu/PROGRAMS/GRAD/edcmptch.ihtml



Please let me know if I can be of any further assistance, or if I can
clear anything up about my answer.

Good luck,

I would just like to clarify that of course I found
www.gradschools.com by using Google and entering "search graduate
schools" in the search field.

I actually was looking for answers beyond the obvious Google search
and gradschools.com, which I had already checked out. But you did have
several schools listed that I had not considered. Thanks very much.
