MA in Curriculum and Pedagogy - Science, Mathematics and Technology Education in Toronto Canada | University of Toronto

The Curriculum & Pedagogy Program (C&P) serves as a platform for in-depth analysis of curriculum, broadly defined as learning experiences across both structured and informal environments. This involves critically assessing content (subjects, courses, degree programs), objectives, and teaching methodologies employed to facilitate learning. MA candidates in the Curriculum & Pedagogy program must fulfill eight half-course credits plus a thesis. Depending on prior background and qualifications, supplementary coursework may be necessary. Full-time students must complete all degree requirements within three years, while part-time students have six years.
This research-intensive program examines how curriculum influences learning in various educational contexts. Ideal for those considering doctoral studies, it provides seven specialization areas: Critical Curriculum Studies, Arts Education, Educational Technology, Indigenous Education & Decolonization, Qualitative Research Methods, STEM Education, and Wellness in Learning.
The STEM Education specialization focuses on theoretical frameworks, practical applications, and current challenges in science, mathematics, and technology education across diverse environments. Our dynamic academic community values scholarly exchange, critical thinking, and research-driven exploration of innovative STEM teaching approaches. Through partnerships with the STEM Center and collaborative engineering education initiatives, we welcome students to examine pressing issues including STEM equity, inclusive mathematics instruction, diversity initiatives, and education's role in social and environmental advocacy.
