ProviderDeakin UniversityHelp shape the future of innovation in education through Deakin’s Graduate Certificate of Education Research. You will take a deep dive into an education topic of your choice, think expansively and develop specialist knowledge that may help improve the education sector or your learning institution, while advancing your career. Develop foundational knowledge of research theories, methodologies, design and ethics. Under the supervision of experienced academic staff, you will identify an issue of your choice and design a guided research project or paper to explore it.

Research skills are highly valued in education and are often required for high-level professional roles, as outlined in the Australian Professional Standards for Principals and Teachers. The research you generate in this degree can also provide a pathway to a PhD.
