Rapid changes in the educational landscape, largely driven by the unprecedented impact of globalisation and information communication technologies (ICTs), have accelerated the need for teachers, educators, educational leaders as well as other education stakeholders to be well equipped with the skills and knowledge to meet the education needs of the future. The Master of Education Research (STEM) aims to help enhance students’ knowledge in areas of science, digital and information technologies, engineering, and mathematics, with a particular focus on and application to how these can be integrated into and across a range of educational contexts.
The Master of Education Research (STEM) is a supervised research degree that requires candidates to propose, design and implement a significant research project in the field of STEM education. The program includes a one-semester coursework stage and a three-semester thesis stage. In the coursework stage candidates undertake four compulsory research training units which are intended to equip students with the knowledge and skills to design a STEM education research project, conduct a literature review, use quantitative and/or qualitative methods for data collection and analysis, and prepare a research and ethics proposal. Employment opportunities in STEM specialised areas continue to emerge nationally and internationally. In Australia, research graduates in STEM have a wide range of employment prospects in some of the largest and most prestigious companies across different industries.
