    Programme with a vocational and research orientation

    The Master's Degree in Educational Governance responds to the need to train professionals or researchers in the area of Governance of educational entities, providing them with advanced competences, skills and attitudes to implement and develop governance in all areas of an educational organisation.

    This Master's degree seeks to incorporate the skills required for future public policy makers in the field of education, directors and managers of educational institutions and teachers in general, in the knowledge derived from the new spaces of relationship and management.

    Graduates of this degree will be able to lead the transformation of educational centres, considering, in addition to the inclusion of information and communication technologies in the classroom or the adaptation of teaching methodologies, all aspects and processes of an educational organisation: structural, organisational, management, planning, etc.

    One of the main differentiating features of this degree is its dual orientation and, therefore, the two exit profiles of the master's degree: professional and research.

    The proposal presented in the master's degree maintains blocks of theoretical foundations in educational governance and, in addition, adds three optional subjects that students will have to take depending on the profile they wish to acquire.

    On the one hand, there are two four-credit subjects on methodology and analysis in the area, in the case of the research profile, and, on the other hand, an eight-credit internship subject, in the case of the professional profile.

    In addition, the combination of subjects such as information and communication technologies, new methodologies in the teaching-learning process, as well as the organisation and internal management of educational centres and organisations, gives it a unique integrating character in which the main characteristics necessary to lead these institutions are included.
