Can someone do another Masters in Canada if you already have a Masters and PhD from the UK?

  • Many thank you Azor. Change of profession-the PhD really didn't provide me with the opportunity I wanted into my teaching career- So, i am thinking of doing Masters in Education that may allow me into teaching along the process of the programme and after the programme

  • partricia- The My First Masters is in environment- But i really want to get into teaching thats why i want to do the masters- BUT, the main reason why i am asking is from immigration perspectives - if Canadian immigration would allow an international person do that

    I don't know if it is the same in Canada, but in the US, an EDU masters is more directed at pre-college teaching. There are many specialties within it, however.

I know a lecturer in my university who did his Masters and PhD in Computer Science and also has a Masters in soil science. So yes, you could do any number of Masters you want. I doubt immigration really cares about your background. If you have admission and support letter from a Canadian university, you should be able to get a visa. And if you are paying fees for your Masters it is unlikely you will have any problems.

You can study for a second masters, but funding may have different conditions.

I know several people with 2 masters and they did them for their own reasons.
