Educational Science and Technology

The masterprogramme Educational Science and Technology (EST) teaches how to analyse educational and training problems in a systematic way and how to design good workable solutions for those problems.

It is meant for anyone fascinated by educational and training processes but not intending to become a classroom teacher or trainer. What does the ideal learning environment look like? What teaching resources does it require? How can technology be used in education and training? What is the best way to develop people to their full potential? How do members of an organisation learn from each other? After completing this programme, graduates will be able to answer these questions and more. The masterprogramme Educational Science and Technology (EST) is the academic programme for those who aim at a career as a professional with a solid scientific background in designing and evaluating education and training. The programme broadens and deepens a student’s research skills. Students learn how to conduct both qualitative and quantitative research, and how to report in scientific articles. Students put all these competences into practice during their individual graduation project. The programme embraces two domains: 1 Educational Design and Effectiveness (EDE), 2 Human Resource Development (HRD).
