Open the World to a Child…

The goal of the graduate program in Montessori education is to guide adults as they prepare for the work and responsibility of helping each child to develop the fullness of his or her potential. The program provides graduate students with opportunities to acquire an understanding of a child's stages of development and the different conditions and strategies necessary to support development at each stage. Graduate students also broaden their knowledge of research and trends in the field of education and are prepared to assume leadership roles in their profession. As a student in this program, you select one area of concentration: Assistance to Infancy (ages 0 -3), Primary (ages 3 - 6), or Elementary (ages 6 - 12).

These training courses are presented in two components including a.) the Montessori concentration offered in either an academic year or multi-summer format taken at the AMI training center (format offerings may vary year to year) and b.) the Education Core taken in residence on Loyola's Baltimore campus during an intensive 25-day summer session. Upon completion of the program, graduates receive both the internationally recognized Association Montessori Internationale (AMI) diploma and the Master of Education degree from Loyola College in Maryland. Loyola is affiliated with the following AMI Institutes:
