BA (Hons) Education Studies and Theology, Philosophy & Ethics

... 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, 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 widest sense, nationally and globally. It is a great 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 a focus on you as a developing practitioner. You will be encouraged to develop a strong personal ideology of education during the course and 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.

This course offers a different type of Theology and Ethics – we like to think of it as Theology ‘with its sleeves rolled up.’ Our hands-on undergraduate degree will take you beyond the classroom and will open doors that have the potential to change your life and empower you to make a difference in the world you inhabit.

Get ready to look at recent trends in theology alongside the implications of scientific discovery, exploring religious debate and arguments for atheism and God's existence. You won’t stop studying world religions, however. You’ll also explore other key events and issues related to terrorism, race, gender, and sexuality. At BGU in Lincoln, we have many years of experience teaching Religious Studies, Philosophy, and Theology. We designed this degree to bring the oldest academic subjects firmly into the present day – combining the richness of ancient tradition with the relevance and freshness of a 21st-century topic.

Throughout the course, you’ll develop your curiosity and fascination about religious cultures, learning from hands-on experience and developing research and critical evaluation skills.
