Students can help form their own cohorts
While working as a teacher in Spencer, Jared Copeland joined an MTSU off-campus cohort graduate master’s degree program in Livingston in fall 2013 and completed his degree in spring 2015. With that success under his belt, he decided to pursue an Ed.S. in administration. He was so pleased with his earlier cohort experience that in fall 2015, he recruited his own Ed.S. licensure cohort at Van Buren County High School where he is an assistant principal. He worked diligently to recruit professionals from surrounding areas in Eastern Tennessee such as Crossville, McMinnville, and Spencer. Copeland’s story shows how this program meets the needs of students by making it possible for them to take courses close to where they live and work. Faculty and administrators are open to and encourage innovation in order to create a learning environment that benefits students acquiring their Ed.S. and the school systems served.
