Program Overview

Program Description:

The increasing number of persons of limited English proficiency demands teachers, counselors, administrators, and social workers that are well-prepared. The Master of Arts program in Cultural and Linguistic Diversity responds to a genuine need and offers a consistent vision of the United States as a multicultural nation whose rapidly changing population requires competently prepared personnel. Sensitive to the needs of a multicultural society, the graduate program reflects a genuine concern for and interest in the Spanish and Asian populations.

Students in the program will be prepared to develop contemporary strategies, models, and programs in school and community settings and to appreciate the challenges and conflicts involved in developing interdependence within multicultural diversity.
