Improve learning in schools and organisations with the latest educational insights.

Education is a key factor in growth and progress in society. But what motivates people to learn? And what role can technology play in this? In this Master's, you will explore how to improve learning processes and environments. You will learn to analyse, design, and guide learning and change processes. For example, you might use digital technologies such as virtual reality and e-learning. Within this Master’s, you can focus on the context of education, human resource development, or combine both areas. 

Programme Details: 

This one-year, English-taught Master’s in Educational Science & Technology is for anyone who is fascinated by facilitating learning but does not necessarily dream of becoming a teacher. 

You will learn to design and evaluate learning scenarios in schools and organisations. This means that the scope of this Master’s is very wide: from designing learning materials for primary school children and young people in secondary and higher education to training and leadership development for adult employees, such as nurses, teachers, civil servants or managers. Eventually, you will engage in meaningful educational breakthroughs as a researcher, designer or consultant.

You can start your studies in September or in February. If you need to follow a Pre-Master’s first, you can also start in September or February, and continue with the Master’s afterwards. You have the option to pursue this Pre-Master’s and Master’s part-time as well.

Technology in education:

The name of this Master’s is Educational Science & Technology. So what exactly is this technological component? You might think of digital tools like video tutorials, Virtual Reality training programmes or examination software. We do too.

But to us, technology means far more than simply electronic tools and devices. We adhere to the Greek definition of the word: systematic treatment of an art, craft or technique. This Master’s teaches you to systematically solve complex educational problems, using theories, research, professional skills and of course, the latest digital technologies.

Career perspectives:

As an Educational Science & Technology graduate, you can become a researcher, an educational designer, a consultant – or merge all three into your personal career path. After graduation, you will have excellent job prospects in a variety of settings, for example, educational or training consultancy firms, educational publishers, corporate HR departments, schools, or the government sector. Our students find a job shortly after graduation, most of them even within three months!

You might become a corporate trainer, an innovation manager or a learning & development specialist at an international non-governmental organisation, a researcher specialised in child learning, an E-learning multimedia consultant and designer, or a policymaker or adviser at the Ministry of Education or another governmental or educational body. Whichever path you choose, this degree will help you stand out as a specialist in learning and development.
