The curriculum aims to personalise learning and deal with current difficulties in education that the teaching workforce must deal with.
The Graduate Major in Instructional Leadership investigates leadership, educational transformation, and instructional theories, as well as how these ideas might be used practically in the challenging and evolving field of education.
