These courses will be offered in a two-week format in Minot and a two-week format in Mayville during summer sessions. For more information on registration, see the summer schedule HERE.
Required education courses in the MEd can also be taken during the same summers, but are also offered as weekend or night classes during the school year. Details about the entire MEd program are available at HERE.
The above math classes are supported by a grant. The grant pays the cost of instruction, travel, room (if staying on campus), books, and stipends of $100 per credit for follow-up activities. Visit Grant Funding for more information about this grant.
Enrollment in the grant supported mathematics courses is also open to ND teachers who are not pursuing the MEd Degree.
