A master's degree in business administration is becoming increasingly important on the way to a managerial position in a company or organization. This also applies to the MBA in education management. This MBA is aimed at those who want to take on responsible tasks at educational and scientific organizations. Alternatively, this course is also aimed at managers in HR departments who are responsible for the special qualification of employees.

How do you train the right specialists? How can education and technology be linked? How can the management and profit optimization of an educational organization succeed? Are online-based learning methods the key to success? These and other questions are the focus of this MBA course.

Graduates of this course have promising opportunities to become leaders in the field of personnel development or in the management of educational institutions and are increasingly in demand on the market. However, there are currently not many MBA programs that specialize in the education sector.

With an MBA in education management, you become an online education expert and can thus occupy central positions in your company or educational institution in the long term. The course provides you with specific background information on the latest techniques in the training market. The main focus is on the topic of "virtual classrooms" and "virtual knowledge transfer". The MBA links the thematic priorities of education, management and technology.

You will learn specialist knowledge of hardware and software applications that will help you to train employees in a targeted manner. At the same time, you will be trained to develop courses and further training measures with the support of electronic learning aids. Business aspects related to the management of an educational institution are also in focus. The aim of this course of study is, as an expert in education management, to bring the personnel of HR departments up to the best and latest knowledge or to advance public and state educational institutions or knowledge organizations.

Forms of study

The MBA course in education management has so far only been offered at a few universities, so the options for the type of study are correspondingly small. The option of a part-time study course or a classic full-time course is currently hardly available. In most cases, the offer is designed for this type of study as a distance learning course.

Since the content of the course deals with online-based knowledge transfer, the course itself is structured in this way. Often a virtual lecture hall is offered, the lessons take place on regular dates during the week or sometimes in block events at the weekend. As is typical for distance learning, this MBA is strongly based on the principle of self-study. The material has to be deepened, repeated and reworked independently. On the e-learning platforms of the universities, you can also exchange ideas with lecturers, tutors or fellow students. The study groups are usually kept quite small, so that a more efficient learning structure is created.

Course of study and content

The MBA in Education Management is designed for a study period of approximately 20 months. Some variants indicate a duration of 18 to 24 months, others are more specifically limited. Since this is a distance learning course based on self-learning phases, the study time can of course always deviate from the standard study time.

The course of study is usually divided into four semesters, which include various thematic aspects. While you are introduced to the topic of education management at the beginning of your studies with the help of introductory courses so that all students are at the same level, more and more content is added in the course of time, until you can choose certain focal points depending on the university. These include, for example, the focal points "Online Coaching", "Online Tutoring" or "Online Training Business Experiences".

These topics are covered during the course:

• Project and requirements management
• Information management
• HR management
• University and science management
• Digital learning in the company
• New media and technologies in learning processes
• Communication and cooperation in the area of ​​"online"
• Focus competence development
• Education Technology Trends
• Virtual integration into educational processes
• Educational marketing
• Online coaching
• Online tutoring
• Online Training Business Experiences

A master's thesis must be completed at the end of the course. With a successful evaluation of this scientific work, the academic degree Master of Business Administration is obtained, which gives you the opportunity to hold a managerial position in the company.

Requirements

The requirements for participating in the MBA course in the field of education management are quickly explained. As a rule, you must have already completed a university degree or have some professional experience. An internationally recognized university degree, which is equivalent to at least a Bachelor, is usually essential. Depending on vocational training and qualifications, the professional experience to be demonstrated is set at a duration of at least three to five years.

Costs

An MBA program usually costs a lot of money, and offers in the area of ​​education management are no exception. The tuition fees are between 8,000 and 11,000 euros. Some universities offer discounts depending on the payment option. A one-off payment at the beginning of your studies is cheaper than an installment payment, which must be repaid over the entire study period. Other universities split the costs between the individual semesters. In most cases, students are free to choose the payment rhythm.

Alternatives

Since this course is still a young and aspiring MBA degree, there are not many universities and academies that offer the focus on education management. So if you definitely want to get further training in the personnel market, an MBA course from the area of personnel management could also be considered.
