Overview

Designed primarily for professionals in the field, this program is typically completed on a part-time basis over two academic years, including summer sessions, through a combination of campus-based and online coursework culminating in a capstone project under the mentorship of a faculty supervisor. MEd students are required to complete the degree within four years.

The MEdin Education from University of British Columbia, is not a research degree in the sense that the student is not required to carry out and defend an independent research project. However, the MEd program is nevertheless research-based in that consideration of educationally relevant research constitutes a major focus of study and students are normally required to take a number of research-relevant courses.

Features

Students enrolled in the MEd degree will develop valuable skills and gain experience necessary to work in a professional field in an education environment. Graduates are prepared for employment opportunities in government, higher education, school administration and education consultation.
