The research for the Masters dissertation has local significance to education in Macau. This accords with the expressed mission of IIUM, in particular to ensure that education contributes to the social, ethical and moral development of Macau citizens. Alongside its other diploma courses, the School of Education mounts a Diploma in Personal and Social Education in co-operation with the SAR Education Department, and is currently working with its third group of students. Several students move from the Diploma courses to the Masters program on Social Education. The School of Education ensures that its courses are underpinned by rigorous research, high quality teaching, and challenging material that is both topical and interesting.
Students enjoy extensive individual, group and tutorial support.
The medium of instruction is English, and support for English is provided in the School. The School is establishing an important research presence in Macau, for example in the fields of curriculum, management and policy, and this is supported by research training, and in development projects in these and other areas. We invite you to visit IIUM to discuss how we can meet your educational needs.
