Program Description

Students may already be working in the education sector, such as a teacher, manager or researcher, but even if not, this Master in Education Studies (MA) will refine their abilities to collaboratively explore and critique all aspects of educational policy and practice.

They will draw on pedagogical, sociological and psychological theory to discover how people of all ages and backgrounds respond to education, and how this translates into lived experience in schools, colleges, universities, professional development programs and other educational settings.

They will look at the role and purpose of education from both a national and global perspective, supported by expert academics with sector experience and a diverse cohort of fellow educational professionals.

Upon graduation, they will have the tools and skills to approach complex issues in education at an advanced level, preparing themselves for senior roles in educational policy and services, pedagogy, learning support or research.
