The Master of Teaching is a graduate level teacher education program offered through the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education (OISE) at the University of Toronto. All OISE graduate studies programs operate under the umbrella of the University of Toronto School of Graduate Studies. So all applicants must utilize the University of Toronto School of Graduate Studies online application system to apply for admission to an OISE graduate studies program.
