The Doctor of Education degree in Bilingual Education (Ed.D.) is an advanced degree designed for professionals interested in applying special knowledge and skills related to the education of language minorities, second language learners, and the bimultilingual curriculum. The program consists of twenty-one doctoral courses (a minimum of 63 credit hours) and experiences in education and related areas: history, sociology, Spanish and as well as other languages. All instruction related to educational practices, methodologies, organization of instruction and curriculum development is offered in the Department of Teacher and Bilingual Education.The focus of the program is mainly on the educational needs of school age Mexican American students; field experiences, research projects and required course work in related areas may reflect this focus. The student has the option, however, of concentrating on a different linguisticcultural group as well as different age groups (e.g., adult learners) in individual research projects and in selecting a dissertation topic. In contemporary bimultilingual education, the theoretical models are often applicable not only to Mexican Americans but to other linguistic groups (e.g, indigenous, tribal, minority and minoritized groups worldwide).
