About this programme

MEd In-Person Information Session on Wednesday, Nov. 18 from 6:30 to 8 p.m. Register here. Develop your career through advanced graduate-level studies at Laurier’s Faculty of Education. Students can expect an exceptional learning experience with small classes led by award-winning faculty and leaders in their field who facilitate meaningful dialogue, curriculum connections and student engagement. We offer two distinct programs of study within our Master of Education (MEd) program: one program with an Interdisciplinary focus for those more directly involved in teaching and learning at all age levels (May and September start), and a Student Affairs program for those interested in student affairs and services in a postsecondary setting (May start). Please note that prospective students wanting to be certified to teach in Ontario in K-12 must pursue their Bachelor of Education . The Master of Education program does not lead to certification to teach in Ontario. The program requires the completion of eight half-credit courses and can be completed part-time in six consecutive terms (two years). Continuous enrolment is required for the duration of the degree. With the exception of fully online courses, all MEd courses are offered in the late afternoon or early evening to accommodate traditional full-time work schedules. Our Interdisciplinary focus provides professional learning across many employment sectors in areas such as collaborative learning and instruction, innovative education through emerging technologies, and high-impact practices for teaching, learning and leadershi
