Master of Arts (Education)

Program Description

Master of Arts (Education) Programme is an innovative programme, which would provide learners with a wider and comprehensive understanding of education as a field of knowledge and thus would accommodate a wide variety of learner needs. Needs may range from understanding the concept of education to knowing how knowledge gets generated around education and to acquiring higher levels of specific aspects of education.  As per the norms of the National Council for Teacher Education (NCTE), one of the academic eligibility criteria of becoming a teacher educator is to have M.A. (Education) degree to teach the foundation courses, hence the importance of this programme.  Considering the ever-changing cultural and social patterns, it is important to know the roots through subjects like philosophy, psychology, and sociology etc. The programme would help in the preservation and transmission of heritage and values and would help in preparing the students as global citizens.
