The International Graduate Programs for Educators Office (IGPE) develops, manages, and delivers the master of science program in multidisciplinary studies and provides professional development for education professionals working at American/International Schools. Courses are delivered at the school site, either electronically or through a combined approach of on-site/online instruction depending on the course and the needs of the cohort.

Micro-credentials

IGPE-facilitated micro-credentials verify, validate, and attest that specific skills and/or competencies have been achieved and are endorsed by Buffalo State departments and programs. Approved micro-credentials have been developed through established faculty governance processes to be meaningful in application and high quality in design and implementation. IGPE facilitates four Buffalo State-recognized micro-credentials: (1) curricular, (2) professional pathways, (3) skill and competency, and (4) continuing education. The description for each micro-credential type can be found in the Buffalo State Directory of Policy Statements, Policy IV:18:00.
