Entry requirements

The program is designed for applicants who have at least five years of relevant professional experience and a practice grounded in anthroposophical principles, or who will have completed stage 2 of a Camphill Academy program.

Career prospects

This MEd is intended to deepen capacities for contemplative, collaborative inquiry and transdisciplinary practice rather than train for a specific licensed role. Graduates can expect to extend their ability to conduct applied research, innovate within educational and therapeutic contexts rooted in anthroposophy, and to seed programmatic or practice-based development in their fields.
