Planning to take a graduate course this summer to continue your professional development or to get one step closer to earning your master’s degree? Registration is now open for summer courses at UNL through the Nebraska Math and Science Summer Institutes (NMSSI), which offer graduate mathematics and pedagogy courses using a teacher-friendly delivery model.
To enroll in UNL graduate courses, follow the four steps outlined on the Nebraska Math and Science Summer Institutes website, http://scimath.unl.edu/nmssi. Check out our course catalog, which supplies the needed class numbers for either Teach Nebraska registration or MyRED.
For all on-site NMSSI courses, current Nebraska teachers automatically qualify for a tuition fellowship from UNL equal to 20 percent of in-state, graduate tuition. Apply now for a fellowship from NMSSI to further reduce the costs of tuition and fees. Apply online via the CSMCE application portal: http://go.unl.edu/scimathapply. Start by choosing "Create an Account" to get logged in. Once in, click on the "NMSSI Summer 2016 Fellowship" application to get started.
