The M. Ed. in Business Education aims to bridge the gap in the lack of research related to business education subjects, especially at secondary school level and in the local Maltese context. Whilst enhancing your studies in business education subjects (such as accounting, economics, business studies and marketing), this course assists you to develop your research skills and contribute to the limited research base.
