student with laptop
The Online Masters of Arts in Curriculum and Instruction with a concentration in English as a Second Language (ESL) or Bilingual Education (BLE) is a rigorous and comprehensive program that may be completed in 13 months. All courses are offered online and structured to allow students to participate at any hour of the day, from anywhere a computer and internet connection are available. Courses are taught by faculty in ASU's Mary Lou Fulton Institute and Graduate School of Education, consistently ranked in the top 25 schools of education in the country by U.S. News and World Report.

The program is administered in partnership with ASU's "fifth campus," the ASU Online and Extended Campus, and adheres to a set of inter-institutional quality assurance instructional design principles known as Quality Matters. The program requires no face-to-face meetings, but students may elect to attend a Saturday orientation meeting before the first summer session begins.
