Overview
Our new MA in Education aims to create reflective, research-driven educators who can apply their knowledge skills and experience to real-world challenges in educational settings. This course is designed to promote a holistic understanding of education, emphasising both theory and practice, and encouraging lifelong professional growth. We will give you an insight into global trends and comparative education systems so you will gain a broader understanding of education in an international context. Through the study of carefully selected compulsory and optional modules, you will explore the relationship between theory, practice and contemporary developments within regional, national and international educational contexts. You will also have the opportunity to conduct independent, evidence-based research, and contribute to the knowledge base in education. The MA in Education is suitable for graduates from any subject background who have a professional interest in education, whether through working in educational administration or business, or the cultural or charity sectors or those interested in progressing towards furthering their academic expertise in educational policy and practice through future doctoral studies. By the end of the programme, you will be able to analyse and evaluate the contemporary challenges facing educational theory and practice and formulate strategies to address them effectively.
