BA (Hons) Education Studies and History

... United Kingdom
... Bishop Grosseteste University

Course Overview

How do people learn? What gets in the way of learning? Where might people learn best – and how? Do we need schools? Is it possible to ‘school’ the world? Can education make a difference in human rights? Women's rights? Nationally? Globally? These are just some of the big questions you will examine by studying Education Studies at BGU in Lincoln. We are proud of our highly current, reactive, and issues-based course that has been carefully designed to give you that ‘bigger’ picture of education in a global society. An Education Studies degree from BGU will equip you well for the future, no matter what your career destination, but if you are planning to go on to teach, you will find that our modules will open your eyes to some different ways of thinking about education and its purpose and place in society.

Studying Education Studies with us will provide you with an excellent understanding of education in its broadest sense, nationally and globally. It is a perfect choice if you are interested in a career in teaching or are thinking about working in other education-related areas. The undergraduate degree provides you with a deep and reflective knowledge and understanding of contemporary issues in education, directly related to everyday practice. You’ll debate education policy, find out more about the drivers of educational change in England today and critically consider different approaches to schools and schooling, both within the UK and globally.

A key feature of Education Studies is focusing on you as a developing practitioner. You will be encouraged to develop a solid personal ideology of education during the course. You will be supported in developing specific employability skills through our work-based placements. A number of core modules each year incorporate posts in schools or other education-related settings, and carefully structured placement tasks will ensure that you gain valuable first-hand practical experience.

Our specialism in social and cultural history makes us different from History courses elsewhere. Here at BGU, you are encouraged to study the past with empathy and see the past from other, sometimes challenging, perspectives.

Here at BGU in Lincoln, you won’t just study history through documents; you’ll learn through placements and site visits to archives and museums. Throughout the course, you will explore various fascinating topics spanning several historical eras in different local, national, and global contexts. You’ll analyze data, images, and texts, construct arguments and engage in original historical research. You will also look at how history is encountered within the community and take a work-based placement at a school, archive, museum, or other site that fits your career goals and direction.

This undergraduate degree will help build your skills as a historian, from introductory subjects in your first year to an independent, research-based dissertation in your final year. As well as learning about people in the past, you will investigate how people today engage with history and consider how the past can be brought alive.
