Program details

Overview

The Master of Education at Brandon University is offered as a 36-credit-hour degree, with a shorter 24-credit-hour option available only to graduates who already hold a 36-credit-hour M.Ed. from Brandon University. Students choose a specialization from Inclusive Education, delivered online; Guidance and Counselling, delivered on campus; or Educational Administration, available both online and on campus; a Curriculum and Pedagogy specialization is also offered, though in a given term it may be restricted to a specific community-based cohort. Depending on the specialization chosen, students can complete a thesis or a practicum-based route toward the degree, and the program can lead toward professional certification in Manitoba. Delivery mixes online and on-campus formats depending on the specialization selected. The program is designed for practising teachers pursuing graduate-level professional learning and specialization within their field.

Requirements

Admission Requirements: Brandon's Master of Education normally requires a Bachelor of Education degree — applicants without one are considered only in exceptional circumstances — a minimum GPA of 3.0, a valid teaching certificate, and two years of teaching experience confirmed by the employer on letterhead. Applicants submit two reference letters (one academic, one from a supervisor), a resume or CV, a pre-admission statement of interest, and a sample of written work, which together with the statement of interest serve as the program's measure of written English competence; international applicants must additionally meet Brandon's general English proficiency requirement. The program admits for the Fall term only, with Canadian and international applications due on separate, earlier deadlines than the general intake.

Application Details

Start Date: September
Application Deadline: Domestic applicants apply directly to Brandon University: for Fall (September) 2027 entry the deadline is August 15, 2027, and for Winter (January) 2027 entry it is December 1, 2026. International applicants must apply earlier: April 1, 2027 for Fall 2027 entry, and August 1, 2027 for the next open Winter window (Winter 2028 entry), since the Winter 2027 international deadline of August 1, 2026 has already passed. Applications for the new academic year open October 1 each year. A late application for one term is automatically carried to the following term rather than rejected, but Brandon does not otherwise describe admission as rolling. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
