A Note from the Director

Invest in Yourself and Your Future
The decision to pursue graduate education is an investment in yourself and a commitment to your future. Most individuals seeking to continue their education must make significant sacrifices in order to incorporate graduate studies into their already-full lives. Whitworth’s faculty and staff are sensitive to the needs of adult professional learners. We provide a supportive and nurturing environment that allows you to grow and thrive as a leader in your chosen field. The Whitworth Graduate Studies in Education Program provides a variety of high-quality master’s-level degree and certificate programs  at convenient times and in formats that fit into even the busiest schedule. Our programs are designed to help foster your growth as a scholar, a community member, a visionary leader and an advocate, whether through direct service in traditional school settings or through community agencies.  We provide hands-on experience that enables adult students to tie theory to practice, and our reality-based instruction will propel you to your next level of professionalism. Graduates of Whitworth’s programs are highly respected professionals throughout the state of Washington, as well as in other parts of the United States and around the world. We welcome your inquiries, and we encourage you to join our GSE family.
