The MA program in Educational Studies is a department-wide program that can be completed full-time over a two-year period or over a longer period for part-time students. The EDST MA is a flexible program designed to meet the needs of a wide range of people interested in conducting and learning about educational research. The emphasis on educational research provides students opportunities and training to conduct their own research projects. MA students can focus their studies in one of four MA concentrations: Adult Learning and Education (ALE); Higher Education (HIED); Society, Culture and Politics in Education (SCPE) or Educational Leadership and Administration (EDAL).
