Advancing education through technology and design.
Effective teaching, in any environment, is dependent on an educator’s ability to
successfully bring instruction and curriculum together. At the University at
Albany, we believe the intersection of innovative planning and technology is
where today’s teachers need to be.
The Master of Science in Curriculum Development and Instructional
Technology (CDIT) is an online program that trains educators on the design,
development and evaluation of curricula, while exploring current and emerging
technologies. Our graduates think about the what and how of learning, creating
successful strategies in the classroom and beyond.
CDIT offers a carefully crafted core curriculum with additional specialized
courses in the following areas:
