The University of British Columbia’s Master of Education in Early Childhood Education program is built for teachers and early childhood educators who want to expand their knowledge. This program is entirely online, and offered part-time to allow for maximum flexibility for students.

During the two-and-a-half years students spend with UBC online, they will get access to offers and opportunity that explore issues in early childhood education research, theory, and practice. The program is designed for learners across various education programs, and is a fit for teachers, early childhood education professionals, and those working with children in a government or NGO role.

Graduates will have more of an understanding of where their current students are coming from and be better prepared to offer them the tools that will make them succeed.

Gorgeous campus one of the most beautiful. Did my bachelors of business and computer science here and could not have gotten a better education than the price point - also generous with bursaries. Professors are mostly competent, fun, and very engaged with student learning. Stellar professors in Sauder and computer science faculty. If you are into Greek life, UBC Sororities is an encouraging and friendly environment to make friends during university, dorm / res life as well. Like any university though, can be somewhat biased towards more conservative ideas - not allowing certain speakers to come to campus or allowing unnecessary protests to continue at these discourses. I think it’s important for a reputable university to allow the free discussion of open ideas as there are many international students and Canadian students from various backgrounds.
