Master of Education
Educators play a vital role in developing the capacity of citizens to use knowledge to learn, develop and participate in our contemporary world. The Master of Education aims to extend your expertise, helping you to become a leader in Education.
The Master of Education is offered completely online, giving the flexibility to study anywhere, anytime.
Coursework options
Through the Master of Education you have the option to take the student-led design pathway or a specialisation pathway. The Student-led Design pathway, lets you select eight courses from the many Education postgraduate courses, allowing you to customise your studies to your personal and professional goals and needs. You can tailor your selections to give a clear focus to your degree such as early childhood, educational technology or contemporary literacies or choose to explore a broad range of areas.
The second coursework pathway lets you complete a specialisation or major:
Pathway to doctoral studies
If you are looking to continue on to doctoral studies then the research pathway is for you. In some countries, completion of a research stream is a requirement for recognition of the Master's qualification. If you are from Canada and the Middle East, or are intending to live and work there, you should check registration requirements with the relevant authority in-country around the half-way point of the Master's program. This will give you time to complete your program via the research pathway if you need to do so.
The research pathway allows you to complete any four units of coursework before embarking on a four-unit program of research work.
Study pathways
Not sure if you want to dive straight into the masters program? You can begin by enrolling in the Postgraduate Certificate in Education and after completing it put the credit you earned towards your Master of Education if you decide to continue studying. A pathway exists to the Doctor of Education or Doctor of Philosophy.
