The Faculty of Education at Lakehead University offers a Master of Education program designed to meet students' professional and academic goals and interests.

Lakehead University's Master of Education (MEd) program provides students with a unique learning opportunity, which addresses the current landscape of both education and research. This program consists of two distinct fields of study, Educational Studies and Education for Change.

The Education for Change field provides an innovative learning experience that allows students to complete their Master's of Education with one of the following specializations: • Environmental and Sustainability Education (ESE) • Indigenous Education (IE) • Social Justice Education (SJE)

SJE focuses on theory, research, and practices that analyze and address social forces both in and out of schools that perpetuate injustice and oppression, and includes approaches with diverse emphases such as anti-racist education, anti-classist education, fat pedagogy, feminist pedagogy, humane education, Indigenous education, inclusive education, and queer pedagogy.
