Introduction
TRAIN, TEACH, DEVELOP
With this Master's Program in Educational Sciences with a mention in Educational Administration, the Free University of Costa Rica wishes to contribute to the freedom that exists in the educational system of our country, strengthening the field of private education, the formation of educational policies, as well as the leadership resources that our education has, allowing a sustainable development in our society, guiding the ethical, moral and democratic values that constitute it.
The curriculum is focused on courses related to different areas of knowledge, integrated around the problems of education and complemented with a final graduation project, according to the nature and levels of demand of each of the courses and the areas in management, in what corresponds to the modality called Professional Master's Degree.
This type of Master's focuses information on the inquiry, observation, analysis, systematization of the sociocultural reality, and the dynamics of educational institutions and programs in Costa Rica.
This process is postulated as the starting point to generate adequate knowledge. Parallel to this, the study of the specific situation of the Educational Administration of the country is emphasized and the respective theoretical-methodological frameworks based on bibliographic consultation and on the comparison of experiences at the national level are elaborated. The synthesis of these two aspects, national reality, and theoretical-methodological foundation will allow the graduate of this plan to achieve the proposed objectives.
