The graduate program earned a score of 75, an improvement from last year\u2019s score of 69. The rankings are based on scores in five general categories: student engagement, student services and technology, admissions selectivity, faculty credentials and training, and peer reputation.<\/p>\n<p>The College of Education and Human Development offers graduate programs at the certificate, master\u2019s and doctoral level, with many programs either fully or partially online. The master\u2019s program in special education, for example, offers degrees in early intervention, high-incidence or low-incidence disabilities, all of which are entirely online.<\/p>\n<p>In fall 2018, UMaine will launch a new online Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT) program, designed for people who want to become teachers and who earned their undergraduate degree in a field other than education.<\/p>\n<p>More information on the UMaine College of Education and Human Development graduate programs is\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/umaine.edu\/edhd\/graduate\">online<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>U.S. News &amp;
