also, there are graduate program options in the College of Education

The Teacher Education Department offers graduate programs that provide advanced professional education knowledge and skills for application in school and non-school settings. The Master of Arts is designed for students wishing to pursue research and/or continue studies beyond the master's degree level. The Master of Education degree is directed toward mastery of professional education practice. Students pursuing the Master of Education may major in Instructional Specialist or Reading Education.  http://academics.utep.edu/Default.aspx?tabid=24673 , http://academics.utep.edu/Default.aspx?alias=academics.utep.edu/tedgrad

Also, there is the Master Mathematics Teacher (MMT) certificate program:
