Financially, pursuing a Master’s can lead to greater earning potential. Many programs provide financial aid in the form of scholarships and grants, making it accessible.

What our students say
What motivated you to do a MA program?
I study harmony and co-creation applied to human potential and evolution. When my work evolved into global teaching and speaking, I felt motivated to establish my credentials through the Ubiquity MA in Wisdom Studies program because of the flexibility combined with academic rigor and personal development.
Why it was a good experience?
My Ubiquity experience was immensely profound. The flexibility to create my path within rigorous learning methodology helped align my degree to my unique contribution to the world. The holistic approach and interaction with global leaders uniquely integrated my prior and emerging work while nurturing astounding personal depths. Thus, I felt joyfully stimulated to co-create regenerative systems humanity needs to live responsibly for our shared evolution.
My motivation for the MA program was to integrate my clinical experience, observations and ideas from my work as an energy healer somatic therapist with existing published research. I also wanted to learn more to adapt to my work and what I teach. I was able to draw on the specific areas that interested me and were relevant to my practice such as psychoneuroendocrinology, childhood development theory with a focus on in utero trauma transmission, psychedelic medicines and altered states of consciousness, and the focus of my thesis, which was distance healing through the lens of quantum biology.
Through the program, I was able to self-direct my own study, apply my practical experience and also learn more about the field by exploring frontier research that has only been published in the last few years. I developed an even deeper capacity to express myself, assimilate large quantities of information and challenge my existing views.
I enjoyed the MA so much that I completed the whole course within a year and I would highly recommend it to anyone that is seeking an intellectual challenge in a supportive and global learning environment. The tutors are great and the live group sessions are always very interactive and a chance to meet like-minded souls from around the world.
