Science Education


	Featured Education School: Walden University

The capabilities of science seem to grow by the day. It is vital that, in the future, there are enough science students of all disciplines to continue to make advances in health, technology and the study of the world around us. If you work in teaching, research or the public sector, a master's degree in science education could help to shape the scientists of the future.

Why is science education important?
The progress we make in science will underpin our progress in everything else. Alongside technology, science should dictate the world's future by helping us understand ourselves and our planet, helping ensure that both will survive. Getting young people interested in science becomes more and more difficult with the wide range of leisure and study activities available today. Teachers and policy makers who undertake a degree in science education will learn more about how to research and develop future science education, ensuring its survival - and therefore our own.

Science education degrees
Whether you are in primary or science teaching, a master's degree in science education should offer you plenty of opportunities. Here are just some of the things you can cover:

attitudes to science
science and society
curriculum development
gender and science education
practical work in science
primary and secondary science education
