Education with Specialisms Mary Immaculate College

Overview

Offered on a full-time (1 year) or part-time (2 year) basis, a modular design enables students to register for specific core M Ed modules and select others from a diverse range of specialisms, thus accumulating credits in a flexible way.

In this fashion, students will build their own customised M Ed from the available modules tailored to their own professional specialisation, research areas and personal interests. This hybrid model, which comprises an innovative, interconnected, future-ready suite of modules will promote teacher agency in their learning and workplace as well as providing a unique, rigorous and compelling intellectual challenge.
