Master of Education for 2010

Course overview

Monash education research degrees are designed to allow students to develop and implement a major research project on a topic of personal interest, with the aim of contributing to the improvement of professional teaching practice. This program provides educators and educational administrators, managers, and policy makers with the opportunity to undertake research that can apply directly or indirectly to their work environment. It is particularly suitable for those who have research interests but who have not previously carried out a major research project and would like to eventually progress to doctoral studies in education. Students conduct a study that is substantial but smaller in scope than a PhD. They will need to complete a 60,000 word thesis. Research areas offered include early childhood, primary and secondary education; gifted education; inclusive and special education; information and communication technology in education; international education; leadership and policy development; literacy studies; LOTE; mathematics and science education; music education; school and organisational leadership; work and learning studies; educational and developmental psychology; counselling; mentoring and coaching; professional development studies; teaching English as a foreign or second language; and sport and outdoor recreation.

Career outlook

This program is designed to meet the needs of educators, educational administrators, managers, policy makers and others interested or involved in learning and education within the wider educational community or working in the corporate or government sector.
