Course Information

The Education Studies degree is designed to give you a solid foundation in the history, sociology, psychology and philosophy of education, as well as an understanding of education in modern society and the current debates and issues surrounding the subject.

Education is concerned with understanding how people develop and learn throughout their lives, and the nature of knowledge and critical engagement with ways of knowing and understanding.

After a broad-based first year, introducing you to key higher education skills, psychology, educational theories and ideas, you will be able to focus on particular themes within the course, such as special educational needs, technology and/or preparation for a primary teaching career.

The course can provide you with the foundational knowledge to be fully prepared for working in a diverse range of professions with children and young people and allow your individual interests to be explored.

The course has a strong strand in employability running through it and you are encouraged to gain additional voluntary experience and to be able to reflect upon this in your academic work.

You will have the opportunity to build a portfolio of complementary work experience and academic knowledge that will prepare you for future study and employment.
