Program details
Overview
The Master of Arts in Social Justice Education is offered by the Department of Social Justice Education at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education (OISE), University of Toronto. The program is multi- and interdisciplinary, drawing on the humanities and social sciences to examine the social, historical, cultural, political, economic, and ethical contexts of education, with a focus on equity and social justice. Full-time students complete the program over six sessions, spanning two Fall-Winter-Summer registration cycles. Coursework totals 3.0 full-course equivalents, of which at least 1.5 full-course equivalents must be Social Justice Education courses; students in a collaborative specialization may have this requirement reduced. The program culminates in a thesis, which may lay groundwork for doctoral research. Admission requires a minimum mid-B average in the final year of a bachelor's degree, and no standardized admissions tests are required. The department also offers Master of Education, Doctor of Education, and Doctor of Philosophy degrees in the same field.
