To solve old and emerging problems in higher education, we need a laboratory for new educational models and experimenters who will develop them. School of Advanced Studies is a perfect place for such a lab, and the Master of Arts in Experimental Higher Education
The program will be run in partnership with SKOLKOVO Education Development Centre.
EXPERIMENT-DRIVEN
During Year 1, you will experiment on the Bachelor’s level education of SAS in collaboration with SAS faculty.
Total hours of experimenting: 360, not counting the Year 2.
During Year 2, you will implement an experiment you have designed at a different institution.
ACADEMICALLY GROUNDED
You will study instructional design, organizational change, and applied philosophy of higher education.
Why? So that you are neither boring nor naive and your experiments are meaningful.
What for? So that you can develop your personal vision for the future of higher education.
COHORT-BASED
As an experimenter questioning the status quo, you really do not want to be alone.
By the end of the program, you will build a professional community of X-HE graduates to rely upon during your whole career.
How? As a result of teamwork, group reflections, and joint formal and informal experiences.
