Course Info

The Master of Education is designed to help education professionals engage with advanced knowledge, critical analysis and research skills in the broader area of educational studies.

This programme is for existing education practitioners, leaders and wider educational professionals who want to gain a master's level qualification in education. It offers the option of a coursework pathway or a research pathway. The coursework pathway consists of six courses, while the research pathway includes a dissertation or a thesis, and is suited to students interested in developing independent research skills in education.

The Master of Education is not a teaching qualification, and it does not lead to registration as a teacher.
