The paper explores the problem of professional education content in Master of Education studies. The author points out the change in understanding the concept “professional education content”, which is determined by the development of pedagogical thought from knowledge-oriented to student-oriented and competence-based approaches. The new understanding of the concept explains the necessity of its exploration at the following five levels: 1. Level of common goals and requirements to professional education; 2. Level of educational programs, modules, disciplines; 3. Level of study materials; 4. Level of content realization (in educational process); 5. Personal level. Based on the author’s research of changes in common goals and requirements to professional education at master’s level, as well as the theoretical analysis of the other researches in this field, the author defines the specifics of the professional education content in Master of Education studies at each level. The paper attracts attention to the problem of content construction for Master of Education studies taking into consideration the contemporary, changing requirements of the society.
