Overview
Key facts
Available as a fully-online, hybrid online/on-campus, or fully on-campus program, MASTAHG combines high-quality instruction from leading scholars with a flexible format.
The Teaching American History and Government program at Ashland University is designed to prepare secondary school teachers for the challenge of teaching accelerated courses in American history and US government. The program combines the study of the people, ideas, and events that make up the American experience, with the latest theories in curriculum design and delivery. This dual approach provides teachers with the expertise they need to effectively deliver college-level instruction at the high school level.
Courses are offered both in a traditional classroom setting at the Ashland main campus, at Ashland's regional centers, and online. With a combination of online and on-campus study, the program may be completed in about two years.
