A Master of Education (M.Ed) is a postgraduate program designed for educators, administrators, and professionals seeking to advance their expertise in teaching, learning, and educational leadership. It equips students with advanced knowledge of pedagogy, curriculum design, educational psychology, and policy-making. The program prepares graduates for leadership roles in schools, universities, government education bodies, NGOs, and corporate training environments.
Typically lasting 1–2 years, the M.Ed combines theoretical foundations with practical application. Students explore research-based teaching methods, leadership strategies, and innovations in education. Many programs allow for specialization in areas such as educational technology, special needs education, early childhood education, or higher education leadership. Assessment often includes coursework, practical projects, and a final dissertation or capstone project.
