Drew University’s Caspersen School of Graduate Studies offers an array of distinctive and flexible advanced degree programs designed to meet the needs of working professionals.
The school offers master’s programs in Art & Letters, Data Science, Finance, History & Culture, Medical & Health Humanities, and Teacher Education. Doctoral degrees are offered in Arts & Letters and Medical & Health Humanities.
In addition, several certificate programs are available.
Drew’s programs are based on Drew’s renowned commitment to faculty-student mentorship, opportunities for out-of-the-classroom experiential learning, and facilitating a robust intellectual community.
Most programs are offered fully-online, and in-person and hybrid modalities are also available on Drew’s beautiful campus in Madison, New Jersey—located less than one hour by train to New York City.
Teacher Education programs develop teaching skills by blending coursework with real-world, hands-on experiences. Students collaborate with faculty mentors on understanding the needs of diverse learners in a highly networked world.
Specifically, Drew’s Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT) program provides initial certification for people ready to become teachers.
Drew has a well-known MAT program. “I knew my training would be the best I could get,” said alum Michael Bathel, English and theater teacher at West Morris Mendham High School in Mendham, New Jersey.
Drew’s STEM-designated Master of Science in Finance program is a rigorous one-year immersion in the quantitative and analytical methods and tools used in financial services today, training financial professionals and forging links to Wall Street for decades.
MFin students will be able to take advantage of the brand new state-of-the-art Bloomberg Trading Room, designed to replicate a Wall Street experience complete with Bloomberg terminals, video monitors, and a live stock ticker tape.
