Course Overview

The development and growth of children during their early childhood are extraordinary as they grow from babies, completely dependent on care, to children able to act for themselves.

This course explores the extraordinary time in children's lives from before birth to approximately eight years old. We examine the factors and experiences that shape their early development and growth. We look at early childhood from a range of perspectives - including psychology, education, health, sociology, law, and science - so that you will be well-placed to act as an advocate for young children within a range of professional disciplines upon graduation.

As part of the course, you'll have opportunities to consider cultural differences in early childhood development. You'll also be offered practice-based experiences so they can observe in practice how professionals can impact how young children develop and grow.

The degree prepares you for employment in the early years sector, equips you with a range of transferable skills, and is designed to enhance employability and future work opportunities in a range of areas. Our graduates enjoy successful careers across education, health, social care, research, policy, and charity-based settings locally, and globally. You'll also be well-equipped to pursue postgraduate study or undertake further professional training.
