Course Overview
If you are passionate about how education has shaped your life and wider issues facing the world, and believe it is vital to address topics such as sustainability and social justice, then Education Studies is for you.
Our course explores some big questions underpinning education through the lens of psychology, sociology, history, and philosophy. You will engage with the issues that influence approaches to learning and will be able to compare education systems in a variety of countries and cultures to build an understanding of how people learn and develop throughout their lives.
This thought-provoking and stimulating course also gives you the opportunity to explore areas such as gender, race, equality, politics, multiculturalism, pedagogy, and representations of education in popular culture.

Our graduates have gained employment in various fields, including corporate training, teaching English abroad, educational publishing, the third sector, social and educational research, educational administration, speech and language therapy, and management in local or national government.
