The program is designed to prepare individuals for careers in Career and Technical Education and to enhance the professional development of current career and technical educators. The CTE program offers a Master of Science degree (M.S.), an Education Specialist degree (Ed.S.) and students can earn a doctoral degree in Education Curriculum and Instruction (EDCI) with a focus on CTE.

There are two concentrations in the M.S. degree program: teacher licensure and professional development for practicing educators. The teacher licensure concentration includes all the requirements for earning the master's degree and all the Virginia Department of Education requirements for earning a license to teach in one or more of the CTE program areas:

  • Agricultural Education
  • Business and Information Technology Education
  • Family and Consumer Sciences Education
  • Marketing Education

The professional development for practicing educator’s concentration provides professional development for individuals in one or more of the following CTE program areas:

  • Agricultural Education
  • Business and Information Technology Education
  • Family and Consumer Sciences Education
  • Health and Medical Sciences
  • Marketing Education
  • Trade and Industrial Education
  • Technology Education

The doctoral program in Curriculum and Instruction is primarily for individuals wishing to pursue a CTE teacher education position at a college or university or for individuals.  The Ed.S. degree is appropriate for individuals who seek careers in CTE programs at the local or state level and who already hold a master’s degree.

In addition to the degree options, the Virginia Tech CTE program also provides online professional studies courses for provisionally licensed CTE teachers. Courses taken in this program can also be used toward earning the M.S. degree.
