English Language Requirements
For students who do not meet the English Language Requirement through citizenship or prior studies in English in an approved country, evidence of an approved English language test completed within the last 2 years must be provided. See the English Language Requirements page for more information
The Master of Education requires the completion of 150 credit points, which may include an optional Specialisation from the course schedule.
When you complete the Master of Education with a specialisation, you'll concentrate half of your course in single area of study. This will be recognised on your academic transcript and testamur upon graduation.
Alternatively, completing without a specialisation gives you more opportunity to complete a broader range of units that fit your individual personal and professional goals.
In both cases you will complete a capstone research dissertation.
For assistance tailoring your degree to suit your interests or situation get in touch with a Student Advisor.
If you are starting in 2023 you can find your course planner here. Your course planner gives you a visual representation of your course and will help you plan which units to enrol in and when.
For course planners from previous years, refer to the handbook entry for that year.
