MA/MS in Education, General

Run by the Berkeley School of Education, this master's trains people to lead in schools, policy settings, and research, with a commitment to equity and inclusion across classrooms, schools, and systems. Graduates often become scholars and researchers in schools, colleges, nonprofits, think tanks, or corporations, drawing on faculty expertise across many research areas. Master's students complete a defined sequence of graduate study and often a culminating project, so applicants should compare the program's focus with their intended career path before applying. The program page lists an application deadline of December 1, 2026 for Fall entry. The GRE is not required. Tuition and funding vary by student status and are not listed on this page, so applicants should confirm costs and available support with the department and the Graduate Division before committing to enrollment. Contact details and further application steps are on the program page and the university Graduate Division site.
