Who Is This Course For?
The M.Ed. is intended for graduates who have already completed a Bachelor of Education and want to continue advanced academic study in education.
Its structure may be relevant to students interested in educational theory, curriculum, teaching practice, research, subject education, or educational planning and management. The program requires students to connect professional education study with one selected specialization.
Eligibility
Applicants must hold a one-year, two-year, or three-year B.Ed. degree from Purbanchal University or another university recognized by Purbanchal University.

The curriculum is organized into four semesters. Professional courses establish the academic foundation in education, while specialization courses allow students to study one subject area in greater depth.
| Semester: | Course distribution: |
|---|---|
| First semester | Three professional courses and three specialization courses |
| Second semester | Two professional courses and four specialization courses |
| Third semester | One professional course and five specialization courses |
| Fourth semester | One professional course, one elective, teaching practice, and thesis writing |

Academic Areas
Professional and core study covers subjects connected with educational foundations, educational psychology, curriculum planning and practice, measurement and evaluation, and research methodology.
Teaching practice and thesis writing form the applied and research components of the program. Both components must relate to the student’s chosen specialization. This arrangement connects advanced subject study with classroom practice and independent academic research.
Specialization Subjects
Students may specialize in one of the following areas when they have the required background knowledge:
-
Curriculum and Evaluation
-
Economics Education
-
English Language Education
-
Educational Planning and Management
-
Geography Education
-
Health Education
-
History Education
-
Mathematics Education
-
Nepali Language Education
-
Physical Education
-
Political Science Education

Science Education
Specialization study continues through the first three semesters. The fourth semester brings together professional study, an elective course, teaching practice, and thesis writing.
Teaching Practice and Thesis
Teaching practice requires students to participate in instructional and related academic activities. The thesis involves independent research within the selected specialization.
Keeping both components within the specialization area enables students to connect subject knowledge with educational practice and research. For example, a student specializing in Mathematics Education completes practicum and thesis work related to that field rather than an unrelated education subject.
