Education (Taught)

The MSc Education is the flagship taught postgraduate degree of Moray House School of Education and Sport and one of its most popular programmes. It provides an ideal foundation for students who wish to work in education policy, research or practice, or who want to go on to doctoral-level study.

Study options

Gain a broad foundation on our general MSc Education, or specialise your degree by choosing a pathway in a particular area relevant to your educational and professional aims. You can specialise in one of the following areas:

• MSc Education (Child and Adolescent Psychology)

• MSc Education (Early Childhood Practice and Froebel)
