Master of Education

Gain the skills to be an outstanding educator and leader in a range of institutional settings and contribute to the development of your profession.

Why do a Master of Education?

This degree is built with detailed reference to the best post-graduate qualifications from around the world. We have a huge range of expert international educational leaders, academics, and researchers.

Approved by One Awards, and NOCN, the Master of Education is created by experienced, practicing educators and leaders who want to develop their professional impact. This qualification is particularly suited to current and aspiring leaders within education.

Why did I enroll in an international UARD masters? Like me, you will pick up new skills, knowledge and one more qualification, for resourcefulness when handling youth and counselling students. This MEd helped me to be more flexible and adapt to the needs of the situation. It compelled me to be updated always with what is more effective for the students. I would encourage students of education to enroll. First of all it is online, so everyone can attempt at it. Secondly, the course and the professors are so student friendly, which attitude is a great need of the moment.Father Augusty P. A., Rector, Don Bosco Institute of Engineering & Technology

Many contributors to this degree are local experts and international programme directors with innovative professional development & learning leaders.
