Education for Global Futures is a full-time two-year master’s degree programme facilitating global dialogues in and about education, with the aim of critically re-imagining education based on social justice and decolonial thinking. 

Since we are living in an ever changing and increasingly complex world - facing issues such as human rights violations, surge in AI applications, increasing migration, rise of disinformation and polarisation – simple, quick and easy solutions are not available.

Our EdGlo degree programme is engaging with such changes and challenges, by using a research-based approach to further develop and rethink education and policy in order to advance social justice, interculturalism, peace and inclusion.

Join us and enter an intercultural and student-centred study environment, where diversity is not only our reality but also an instrumental and crucial tool in learning about and for better global futures.

Career opportunities:

The EdGlo programme is not designed for a direct or specific career path but instead, it focuses on encouraging independent thinking, transformative learning, critical analysis and self-reflections. Our student-centred approach allows students to further investigate and deepen their understanding of educational issues they are passionate about. They can then transfer their newly acquired knowledge and skills to different career paths.

As a result, the EdGlo master’s degree programme educates very flexible and adaptive graduates with competencies for working in national and international contexts in the public, private and civil society sectors.

Our alumni work as professionals in a variety of capacities including project leaders, coordinators, and educational consultants. EdGlo graduates are able to do tasks related to research, planning, administration, teaching, consultation and guidance. EdGlo alumni are employed in various fields such as education, development work, policy, or academia.
