Simpson University Graduates Third M.A. in Education Cohort in Korea
For Immediate Release
06.12.2012
REDDING, Calif. - Simpson University graduated its third cohort of master’s degree students in South Korea on June 10.
The university brought its M.A. in Education program to Korea in 2008 after international school administrators there asked if it could be made available to their teachers. Professors from Simpson’s School of Education travel overseas to teach courses on site.
The June 10 ceremony was at Gyeonggi Suwon International School in Suwon, South Korea. Thirteen students—including teachers from six international schools and other schools and universities, as well as church leaders—were honored.
That brings the total number of students who have earned their M.A. in Education through Simpson’s Korea program to 30.
Simpson will begin its fifth overseas cohort in August in Seoul. It will also start offering its teaching credential program to Americans who are teaching in Korea.
