The statistical population included all students and graduates in the field of educational administration at Islamic Azad University, Roodehen Branch. Therefore, due to the unknown population size and based on the Cochran's formula for the unknown size, with an error of 0.05, 384 people were selected using the convenience sampling method. To collect data, a researcher-made questionnaire was used to evaluate the effectiveness of the educational administration syllabus. To analyze the data, single sample t-test was used to compare the mean scores of participants with the mean of the population. Finally, Friedman test was utilized for ranking. The results showed that the mean scores of the participants in the study were lower than the population mean and most participants chose the negative option. Therefore, according to the results from the perspective of candidates and graduates of educational administration at the master's program, the course topics in general and also in terms of educational quality and vocational suitability with the labor market are not effective and need to be reviewed.
