This program immerses students in advanced studies of mathematics education. It emphasizes the integration of educational theories with practical teaching, focusing on both qualitative and quantitative research methods, current issues in education, action research, curriculum design, instructional assessment, and in-depth studies of mathematics curriculum and textbooks. Students must complete a research-based original thesis and defend it in an oral examination. Courses are delivered in English, with some components potentially in Chinese; the faculty prioritizes research-led teaching and training for future educators and researchers in mathematics education.
