Opportunities for Advanced Studies in CS Education

The information given here is intended to be a jumping-off spot in your investigations of opportunities. Please send corrections and additions to almstrum@cs.utexas.edu.

NOTE: Degree programs in CS Education are generally hybrid, multi-disciplinary endeavors. In order to put together the kind of program that would be most useful to SIGCSE members, the program would often have to be combined with more Computer Science coursework than is required for the "XYZ" Degree (unless the person already has a very strong Computer Science background).
