Welcome to the TESOL Program Homepage
at the University of Nevada, Reno.

The TESOL Program in the Department of Educational Specialties at the University of Nevada, Reno is located in the College of Education. The program offers several degree options:

• The MA TESOL Degree (Master of Arts in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) provides a course of study leading to the Master of Arts Degree with a major in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages. The program is designed for both native and non-native speakers of English who wish to teach ESL (English as a Second Language) or EFL (English as a Foreign Language).

• Beginning in Fall of 2009, there will be exciting new changes. (1) We will offer a 15-credit Graduate Certificate in TESOL that can stand alone or be part of a graduate degree in other fields. (2) There are new courses in the MA TESOL program. See our program page for details.
  


• Students interested in doctoral study may want to explore the Doctoral Program in EDS with an emphasis on Language, Literacy, and Culture. A doctoral program in TESOL per se is not offered.


• ESL endorsement courses for licensed K-12 teachers. More.

Those interested in Teaching English Abroad, please see the web site created by MA-TESOL students on this topic.
