1. Honestly CU is not my dream university. I used to want to go and continue studying at Cambridge University because I wanted to study Language and Literature. But recently looking at one of my seniors and realizing there is an interest and intention to contribute to the educational and social fields I think that studying at CU is a good choice.
2. Because I am a child from a rural area and have studied in a village where education in the villages is still not good, due to inadequate access to information and media. Therefore, I have the intention to create a non-governmental organization that focuses on education services to help the growth of education, especially in remote areas. I wish could, someday.
3.Actually, I am also still confused between Teaching Of Social Study or Curriculum and Teaching. Hehe, Pardon me, it's still hard to decide.
4. Yes, I want to continue learning languages, learn English more deeply and continue to study Japanese seriously.

1. Frankly speaking, I am inspired by you. Witnessing you made it to Columbia made it seem possible for me too personally. Columbia Uni was initially not even on my list. But after I saw your stories and did my own researchs, I finally understood why Columbia is indeed worth applying. Columbia Uni especially TC provides great opportunities to learn from the educational experts.

Master of Education in Higher & Postsecondary Education

The Master of Education Program develops breadth of understanding of higher and postsecondary education, though emphasizing particular domains of study and practice, among them, academic learning and development, organizational and institutional processes, and social/cultural and civic perspectives. Students in the Ed.M. Program typically use these offerings to elaborate and deepen their experience-based knowledge and intellectual interests in policymaking, curriculum development, student development, etc. Ed.M. students conclude their programs of study by writing an Integrative Paper focused on a particular topic of professional and personal interest and drawing on the knowledge resources availed by the three curricular domains.

Deciding between the M.A. and the Ed.M.?

The Master of Arts (M.A.) degree requires a minimum of 32 credits to complete the degree. The Master of Education (Ed.M) is an advanced degree for applicants who have professional experience and would like to further their learning and research into the field of higher education. The Master of Education (Ed.M.) degree requires a minimum of 60 credits to complete the degree.
