Course summary

On our undergraduate BA (Hons) Education degree at Birmingham you will learn about education as a human, cultural, economic, and social development that is fundamental to a changing, globalised world. The three-year BA (Hons) Education degree combines ideas and research from education, psychology, sociology, philosophy and history. It has been designed for both UK and international students who have academic interests in education or aspirations to work with children and young people in a variety of fields. Our BA (Hons) Education degree at Birmingham provides a comprehensive understanding of education as a key driver of human, cultural, economic, and social development in a globalised world. Modules to suit your own interests - our extensive range of compulsory and optional modules on the BA (Hons) Education degree will allow you to build a programme to suit your own interests and career aspirations. Option to study overseas - during your second year of study you will also have the option to study overseas at one of our partner institutions for the first semester. A vocational placement - within the UK or overseas in an educational setting which will provide you with valuable reflective practical learning. Each module is assessed independently, and all modules contain some components of continuous assessment (that means assessment taking place during the teaching terms). Some modules are assessed entirely through coursework, without an end-of-year examination. At the beginning of each module, you'll be given information on how and when you'll be assessed for that module. You'll receive feedback on each assessment within three weeks, so that you can learn from and build on what you have done, including written feedback on your assessments, class feedback, and questions sessions and discussions with your tutor. When exams are included in a module, you’ll have access to marking criteria, and mock exam and marking sessions allow you to get a sense of what to aim for.
