Master’s Degree Program in Child Development
The Master’s Degree Program in Child Development aims to train specialists who approach the developmental process from the prenatal period to adolescence on a scientific basis. Within the scope of the program, students gain in-depth knowledge in cognitive, emotional, social, and physical development. The program adopts a holistic perspective on child development within the family, school, and society triangle.
The program offers specialization opportunities in applied fields such as developmental assessment, education of children with special needs, early intervention programs, and family counseling. Course content prepared in light of current research supports students’ academic and professional growth. Additionally, through case analyses and fieldwork, students gain real-world experience.
Graduates of the program can work in kindergartens, rehabilitation centers, hospitals, family counseling centers, and public institutions. They can also take part in child development-related projects as experts, consultants, or educators. Graduates who wish to continue their academic journey may apply to doctoral programs.
