Master of Education (Research)

Murdoch University, Perth, WA, Australia

About this program

The education-specific version of Murdoch's Research Masters with Training: a supervised research project in an education topic ending in a thesis, with research-methods training alongside it, normally over two years full-time. It is a research degree rather than a coursework master's, so there are no taught education units beyond the methods training. Research areas align with Murdoch's education staff and include school leadership, teacher development, curriculum, educational technology and Aboriginal education. Completion can lead to assessment for PhD candidature. Entry is by a research proposal matched to a supervisor. It suits teachers and education professionals who want to research a question in depth and build toward a doctorate.
