About this program

A two-year, 48 credit point master's in education for people who want to work on policy, curriculum and leadership rather than classroom teaching. One thing to be clear on: it is not externally accredited and is not recognised as a teaching qualification in Australia, so it does not lead to teacher registration. The structure is five core units, 27 credit points of electives and a 6 credit point capstone project, with work integrated learning and authentic assessment built through the degree. Study covers research methods, international policy trends and evidence-based program design. Entry is open to people with a three-year education degree, a bachelor's plus an education diploma, or equivalent professional experience. Graduates work as curriculum developers, policy advisers, educational researchers and senior school and sector leaders. It suits education professionals building toward leadership and policy roles.
