Qatar University welcomes new upper-level education students

The Qatar University College of Education (CED) recently hosted a welcoming orientation for new master's degree students to get them acquainted with their respective programs as well as other services, resources and facilities the students will have access to during their years of academia.

This event was held on Sept. 18.

CED graduate programs -- Master of Education in Educational Leadership, Master of Education in Special Education, and Master of Arts in Curriculum, Instruction and Assessment -- were filled with students from Canada, Egypt, Indonesia, Jordan, Liberia, Nepal, Palestine, Qatar, Sudan, Syria, U.K., U.S. and Yemen. Nearly one-third of the new students are Qatari, which is the highest percentage ever admitted into the programs.

New students were welcomed by CED Dean Dr. Ahmed Al Emadi, who wished them well during the school year.

“By choosing advanced studies in education, you will contribute to fulfilling the college’s mission to shaping the future of Qatar through excellence in teaching, scholarship and leadership,” he said.
