I did my MA in applied linguistics at the University of Melbourne. I have a number of friends that completed their MA's in Education there as well. Melbourne University is the TOP university in Australia. Check the UK Times Educational Supplement - university rankings of world universities http://www.thes.co.uk/worldrankings/ if you need confirmation. I loved going there. I am American too, and chose the school because of its excellent reputation and faculty. Check it out! http://www.unimelb.edu.au/

G'day, There are plenty area in Master of Education that you can choose from. Unfortunately there are no universities in Australia that offers all of the area of study. There are only 42 (soon to be 43) universities in Australia, all of them are fully accredited and they are tightly controlled, therefore the quality and recognition of their graduates are equal from wherever university you are studying from. The most important thing is you have to READ the course information carefully, since some courses may have the same name but different content. In regards to ranks, there are plenty of organisations trying to make ranks of the universities in Australia and the world, but none of them are recognised by the Australian government. The famous/favourite ones will be the one in the Group of 8 (www.go8.edu.au), but it is mainly for promotional effort as none of the universities can claim that they are the best at everything. I am happy for the first answerer that he finds uni of Melbourne is suitable for him. Unfortunately there are also ppl who do not like uni of Melbourne, so as you can see, how good/bad the uni is in the eye of the beholder. To find out the latest info abt course that you are taking and where it is offered, I suggest you to go to the Dept. of Education, Science and Training website (http://cricos.dest.gov.au). It will give the list of institutions that are able to offer courses to international students who wants to continue their study in Australia. The info abt fees and requirements are available from the universities' websites. Please make sure that the information you are accessing are the one for International Students. Once decided on the institution, fill in the application form for the international students and send it together with certified copy of your academic qualification (in English and original language). The process will take abt 2-3weeks, depending on the time of the year. Hope this helps. Good luck on your studies and welcome to Australia :)
