Teacher In Residence Program (TIRP)

UCCS partners with Pikes Peak BOCES to provide this program to allow working professionals in other fields to make a career transition to education.

Students may register for just the program itself through the BOCES, or they may also register for UCCS credit.

There are three graduate credit hours available through UCCS for each course, and the tuition is $150. This is a 5 semester program. However, there are 6 semesters required for the Special Education TIRP prgram.

Additionally, 9 credit hours can be transferred into the Masters in Curriculum and Instruction which must be the first 9 credit hours (3 courses) of the program.

There is a regular Education and a Special Education strand of this program.

For more information on this exciting program, please visit the TIRP website: www.tirp.org.
