What makes us different

1. Getting you ready for your career

The CEU Cardenal Herrera University brings together the professional and academic worlds to ensure our students are always in touch with the education industry. The Master's Degree in Bilingual Education, now in its tenth year of operation, has undergone a transformation, adapting to the latest technology. This includes the teaching of Hyflex classes and the use of Apple and Microsoft technological tools, reflecting the educational needs of today's schools. With content-integrated language learning (CLIL), we can bring the world into the classroom: teachers can gain the training they need in teaching content in English through this approach, enabling them to develop their communicative ability in English for the classroom. In the same way, to meet the demand for Spanish as a foreign language (ELE) teachers in Europe and the USA, we offer students a stimulating learning pathway to teach Spanish as a foreign language in Spain or across the world.

2. Specialize once... or twice!

We offer two specialisms to our students – choose one or both. In general, we find that students benefit from the synergies of doing two specialisms at the same time and that this enhances their employability still further. It's well worth the effort!

  • Specialism 1: Using English as the vehicular language in the classroom.
  • Specialism 2: Teaching of Spanish as a foreign language (ELE)

3. Placements

The CEU Cardenal Herrera University enjoys strong relationships with an extensive network of bilingual education institutions in the Valencia region. Your placements will be supervised by CEU lecturers and teachers at the school in question, providing you with an unbeatable learning and professional experience.

4. Language immersion

In a unique initiative in Spain, we provide students with two 100% language immersion days. You will spend two intensely exciting days with native-speaker lecturers and conversation assistants in small groups as you work on innovative solutions for a better world.

5. Guest speakers

As part of our objective to boost our students' employability, we invite a range of stimulating people from the academic and business world to speak at the University, telling students about their experiences and expectations for the future in the world of bilingual education and ELE. In April, a triple session is held with the focus on employability. In small groups, students have the chance to speak to representatives from government agencies, private education groups and a CEU careers adviser.

6. Improve your chances of success within the state system

This Master's Degree is accredited by the national and regional quality assurance agencies in higher education, giving you the edge in selection processes for the civil service.

7. Language learning materials

Master's Degree students will be given free access to a language learning platform.

8. End-of-master's degree project

The dissertation or end-of-master's degree project is the culmination of the year's hard work. It gives you the chance to show your passion for bilingual education: it could take the form of a teaching proposal, action research or even an experimental research project. It could even be the prelude to doctoral research.

9. Dual-mode of attendance

The CEU Cardenal Herrera University possesses the latest educational technology, enabling a dual-mode model of attendance – in-person and online – at educational activities to be implemented if required.

10. COIL projects

Over the course of the year, a number of COIL (Collaborative Online International Learning) projects with American and European universities will take place.

Our master's degree offers students the opportunity to participate in the renowned BIP (Blended Intensive Programme), supported by Erasmus+. This innovative programme combines online and face-to-face learning, providing a rich and collaborative experience that improves teaching skills and cultural competence.

This programme provides our students with:

  • Practical experience with advanced educational technologies.
  • Collaboration with colleagues and experts from around the world.
  • Erasmus travel support.
  • Improved teaching methodologies adapted for bilingual education.

Admission requirements

Before you begin the admission process, check that you meet the admission requirements:

  • University degree
  • A recognized English language certificate (minimum of a B2 level)
  • For the Spanish specialism, you must also have a recognized Spanish language certificate (minimum of a B2 level) if you are not a native speaker.

Graduation requirements

To be awarded the Master's Degree, you will need to demonstrate possession of at least a B2 level of English (via a recognized certificate). Students with a bachelor's degree in early years education or primary education with an English specialism (mención en inglés), English studies, translation and interpretation (English), or who have undertaken degree programmes in English, are exempt from this requirement.

Valid B2 certificates recognized by CEU UCH's Languages Service are listed in this document..

Transformational Competencies Training Plan

The University offers its students the Transformational Competencies Training Plan, to provide them with learning opportunities to further enhance employability and career prospects.

The Transformational Competencies Training Plan at CEU is made up of three practical modules, structured around key soft skills.

Soft skills are an essential part of the armoury of today's professionals. The ever-changing working environment means that the ability to adapt and relate to others effectively is more important than ever. And not only will you get the chance to develop these skills – you can gain a microcredential to prove it.

Want to know more?

Each module consists of four hours of in-person training sessions and you can agree a flexible training schedule with the instructor to suit your learning needs. This schedule will consist of a blend of practical and dynamic activities, a run-through of some theory, self-assessment exercises, peer feedback and some space for reflection.

What is a master's degree?

Master's degrees are postgraduate qualifications which are accredited by quality assurance agencies for higher education at both a national and regional level. For CEU UCH, this means that they are accredited by ANECA (Agencia Nacional de Evaluación de la Calidad y Acreditación), and AVAP (Agència Valenciana D’Avaluació i Prospectiva), respectively. This makes them different from certain other postgraduate programmes in Spain, known as títulos propios, which do not require such accreditation.

This quality assurance process means that Spanish master's degrees in Spain are recognized as valid in any country in the European Higher Education Area.

Students with a master's degree are eligible for doctoral programmes.

With regard to civil service selection processes in Spain, master's degrees carry more weight than títulos propios, which are classified as part of lifelong learning. Both types of qualification are perceived as valuable in the private sector.
