The Master of Education (non-thesis) and Master of Arts in Education programs in Studies in Lifelong Learning engage students in exploring lifelong learning processes across social, institutional, and cultural contexts, including adult basic education, adult literacy, community development, citizenship, cross-cultural learning, women's learning, environmental education, workplace learning, post-secondary education, popular education, and continuing professional development. Courses use a critical, analytical approach to prepare students to work and learn in varied lifelong-learning contexts.
