Course summary

Overview

This flexible course – aimed at educators and education professionals – will improve your practice through a highly personalised programme of Masters level study.

It will prepare you to be a thought leader in your specific area of educational interest by introducing you to a range of core and optional modules grounded in educational research and theoretical understandings of education.

You’ll develop your skills with two core modules focusing on research methods, alongside educational project design and implementation.

The optional modules will draw upon the School of Education’s core research strands – Childhood Studies, Digital Education, Special Educational Needs and Language (in) Education – giving you scope to pursue your areas of interest. You’ll also conduct an independent research study for your dissertation with support from your appointed supervisor.

In joining our MA Education course, you’ll become part of a friendly, multicultural and multi-disciplinary team of students, education professionals and researchers.

You’ll be taught by internationally recognised researchers with a wide range of experience and expertise in a variety of contexts globally.

Throughout your study, you’ll improve your skills in communication, leadership, research, project design and evaluation – all vital for a career in the education sector.
