Master of Education for 2009

Course overview
The Master of Education program was redesigned in 2007 to give our students more flexibility and improved options in their studies. A Master of Education is now an even better choice for teachers and other educators, educational administrators, managers and policy makers, and others interested or involved in learning and development. Whether you are working within the corporate or government sector, or in the wider educational community, this masters program has the flexibility and breadth to accommodate your needs. The course design is flexible so you can tailor a program to suit your specific needs. All students complete a core research methodology unit chosen from a suite which gives you an introduction to key social and educational research methods. You will also choose a number of elective units, and have the option of completing a professional project or a minor research thesis in an area that interests you. There are three options in the Master of Education degree, depending on what you aim to achieve in your degree. Option 1 is to take six coursework units. Option 2 is five coursework units and a professional project of approximately 8000 words. Option 3 is four coursework units and a minor research thesis of approximately 16,000 words. This option provides a great introduction to formal research in education, and can act as a pathway into the Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) program, provided you meet the grade point entry requirements for that program. You can choose coursework units from a wide range of elective units, covering topics in bilingual/immersion education; early childhood; gifted education; inclusive and
special education; information and communication technology in education; international education; leadership policy and change; literacy studies; mathematics and science education; music education, Teaching Languages Other than English (LOTE), Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL), TESOL international and work and learning studies. See the faculty website for a full list of Master of Education specialisation pathways and their availability. If you choose a specialist pathway, this specialisation will be indicated on your academic transcript and printed on your testamur upon graduation.
