Programme Description

The main aim of this programme is to prepare professionals with cutting-age educational, administrative and management skills capable of not only stabilizing institutional micro-climates but also raising institutional performance beyond customary expectations. The courses in this programme will be delivered in a combination of lectures, seminar presentations, projects, self-studies and teaching practices. The selection of course content is based on the objectives of the programme and institutional micro-climates. The mode of assessment will be made up of 40% course work and 60% final examination. The programme will be evaluated by students through Students’ Course Evaluation Forms (SCEF) at the end of every semester to evaluate the courses they have done. Every student must take courses in two teaching subjects: one being (major subject) and other being (minor subject) as well as educational administration and management related courses. 121
