The School of Graduate Studies and Research Professional Growth The Professional Growth program leading to an M.A., M.S., or M.Ed. is a highly restricted and specially structured course of studies determined by the student and his/her advisory committee. The program may not duplicate or even resemble an existing graduate degree program at ɫӰ. For each degree area, the total credit-hour requirement is the same: 30 credit hours. Students electing to pursue an M.Ed. degree in Professional Growth should receive additional advice from the College of Education and Educational Technology. The requirements for all M.Ed. degrees have a certain core that must be fulfilled. A four-semester-hour committee thesis is required, as well as GSR 615, Elements of Research. An administrative member from the School of Graduate Studies and Research is a mandatory thesis committee member, in addition to at least two members of the faculty from related academic disciplines.
