Our MEd program gives you the flexibility to choose your research focus. We offer a diverse range of courses and, as a researcher in our community, you will have opportunities to to engage in outreach initiatives in the community and in local, national, and international partnerships. Our Master’s and Ph.D. programs are designed for university graduates interested in conducting research and completing courses in education. They develop leadership abilities, including critical reflection, research and writing. As our scholarly community values growth and personal development, our students have many opportunities to research meaningful topics and present findings to an audience of peers. Our Master’s program is full-time or part-time and 2 degree patterns are offered: thesis or project. By keeping our class sizes small, we guarantee you access to the kind of individual attention and one-on-one mentoring that will help you develop both personally and professionally. Our annual Graduate Student Symposium – organized by students for students – attracts student presenters from across Canada, with publication opportunities for all presenters. While our graduate programs attract many teachers and education administrators, they also draw professionals from other sectors. Professionals who have education and leadership responsibilities and wish to improve their research and leadership skills come to the program from sectors such as health sciences, engineering, business, social services and the military.
