Overview
The BA Education Studies degree opens up a wide range of careers, ideal if you know you want to work in education but you are not sure yet which path to take. You will explore a range of disciplines including sociology, psychology, philosophy, history and politics and you will discover the transformative power of education. You will be able to experience education in action during your time on placements throughout the course and our optional overseas trips will help you get an international perspective. All of these experiences will help you to uncover how external influences like beliefs, culture, and the surrounding environment can impact how children and adults learn, shaping their attitudes, knowledge and skills.
