Course Overview

This course will deepen your awareness of how education shapes, and is shaped by, our understanding of the world. We explore the links between education (all forms of informal and formal learning, across all age ranges, including adult, higher and professional education), and social and political movements, and develop understandings of how 'education' as a contested field should be viewed within a globalized and postcolonial context. Taking an interdisciplinary approach to think about education, we draw on the arts and humanities as well as the more conventional representations of education in social science. We explore key debates on what is the role of education and how people learn, developed from a range of viewpoints, including critical theory. Studying this course may contribute to your professional development. Graduates go into careers in teaching and training, youth work, education policy, and in community and voluntary sector organizations. Possible professions include community education officer, education administrator, or youth worker. This degree can also be useful in becoming a career adviser or community development worker.

General Eligibility

Our standard postgraduate entry requirement is a second-class honors degree (2:2 or above).
