ACADEMICS - MAE Conceptual Framework
Teacher leadership is the theme that carries through
our graduate licensure and degree completion program. The Augsburg
Education Department believes that teachers are leaders in their classrooms
and should be leaders in their institutions and communities.

The leadership focus plays out in two ways. First, MAE students taking licensure courses with undergraduates exercise leadership in the classroom as well as extend their knowledge beyond the basic requirements of the undergraduate course. Second, in the degree completion component, students are required to include at least two graduate-level courses focusing on some aspects of leadership from our Master of Arts in Leadership (MAL) program.
