The Graduate School of Human Development offers a Master’s course, within the Department of Human Development. At present, the circumstances surrounding a child’s upbringing appear to be far from rosy, and what has been called the “child development crisis” is being universally aggravated. Therefore, this department is committed to investigating possible scientific solutions to this crisis - which is manifested in all aspects of a child’s life. The syllabus is therefore built on the disciplines of pedagogy, psychology, curriculum research and development, and child-care and education. This program is furthermore geared towards engendering experts who possess the research capability and practical skills to analyze in detail and to hypothesize on potential answers to daily confronted issues.
