The Master of Arts in Education (MAEd) is a 56-hour program designed for church and marketplace leaders called to serve in educational ministry to help them develop academic knowledge and equip them for educational practice. This is accomplished by integrating the history of education with educational psychology, life-span development, current learning theories, curriculum design, and methodologies within the framework of a biblical worldview. The program is designed to assist leaders who desire to serve or currently serve in an educational capacity. In order to complete the program, students must complete the required curriculum. For an additional 16 quarter hours of study (72 hours), students may emphasize Early Childhood Education, Adolescent Education, or Adult Education and Care. A student must have a minimum of 20 hours in a specific area to qualify for an emphasis. The program is for the following:
Educators and workers in positions where the master’s degree will allow entrance into a Christian vocation which would not otherwise be possible;
Those who wish to gain expertise in the field of education and enhance their pedagogical and professional knowledge and skills; and
Those who wish to develop appropriate learning experiences and assessment instruments to advance student learning in an interdisciplinary program or specifically teach and mentor children, adolescents, or adults.
LEARNING OUTCOMES
Understand Christian values and ethics and manifest personal integrity and a broad base of education knowledge supported by educational psychology and relevant teaching/learning theories;
Acquire an understanding of and appreciation for the history of education and its theological and philosophical underpinnings, including the political, economic, and social forces that influence educational leaders today;
Integrate knowledge of content and curriculum to design appropriate instruction;
Acquire and integrate a variety of assessment strategies to improve student learning;
Integrate skills in communication and research to enhance the learning experience and increase sensitivity to learner’s needs; and
Manifest behaviors of a reflective practitioner and educational leader in a culturally diverse world.
Faith International University trains students representing various Christian organizations committed to the inerrancy of God's Word. Students with ties to a specific denomination, association, or synod may have the option to choose courses that emphasize their theological perspective. In 2016, the institution's name was changed to Faith International University to better cater to our growing international student population. The name Faith Seminary continues to serve our graduate program.
The institution provides instructors and facilities for undergraduates and graduates in Christian education. The institution also grants degrees required for the church's multiplicity of ministries. It provides academic opportunities in a live setting that encourages students to live under God's Word's guidance for God's glory.
Our mission is pursued through the development of a community of teachers and students who seek to strengthen their Christian beliefs by exegeting and interpreting Scripture, who uphold the form of doctrine expressed in the historic creeds and confessions of orthodox Christianity, and who labour together in fellowship to proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The school seeks to serve the church and society by educating, training and nurturing students toward spiritual maturity and readiness to serve God effectively in both the church and the world. The institution expects faculty, staff, and students to model Christian values such as faithfulness, humility, and service.
