Sleep science and neurodiagnostics are unique emerging health care professions dedicated to recording and studying the electrical activity of the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves, the function of the cardiovascular system, and the function of the respiratory system. These procedures are vital in diagnosis and treatment of sleep disorders, diagnosis of nervous system disorders, as well as aiding in the diagnosis of behavioral, and psychiatric disorders. New technologies have stimulated a great demand for advanced level professionals. The Neurodiagnostics and Sleep Science (NDSS) program represents advanced study in Neurodiagnostics and Sleep Science. Coursework includes: Advanced practice in neurodiagnostic and sleep science; Principles of education for leaders

Philosophy and application of scientific research;Philosophy and principles of laboratory management, healthcare administration, and finance. The program is offered via distance education and may be pursued under part-time status. The UNC Charlotte Department of Kinesiology, in collaboration with the UNC Chapel Hill Department of Allied Health Sciences, offers this unique advanced curriculum. Graduates of the NDSS program benefit from the unique curricula, which reflect the ever-changing nature of clinical practice and patient care. Advanced roles in neurodiagnostics and sleep science require significant levels of analysis, problem solving, and professional judgment. Graduates of the NDSS program are prepared with the knowledge and skill sets to fulfill these advanced roles. Prospective students will be motivated and qualified practitioners who want to pursue this degree to become the institutional, educational, governmental, and research leaders needed in these fields.

Welcome to the New Literacies & Global Learning (NLGL) program! We offer concentration areas in K-12 reading, English language arts (middle and high school), and social studies (middle and high school).

This program is aimed at increasing teachers' capacity for teaching and learning in a rapidly changing world. New literacies enable learners to broaden their modes of making and representing "meaning." New literacies—from text messaging to social networking to participating in virtual worlds—are multiple, dynamic, and always changing. Likewise, global learning is no longer a luxury, but a necessity. Since we have the capacity to communicate and work globally, the demand for global knowledge and understandings is steadily increasing.

Entry Requirements

Scores from the Miller Analogies Test (MAT) or the Graduate Record Exam (GRE)

Three letters of recommendation

A 500-800 word goals statement
