Why Education studies?
This thought-provoking and stimulating course offers the opportunity to explore the relationship between education and some fundamental questions underpinning the world. Education studies examines how people learn and develop throughout their whole lifetimes, investigating how successful this is, exploring the impact education does or does not have on how we live our lives as individuals, communities, countries and cultures.
Oppression of minorities, inequality and poverty, and marginalisation of social and ethnic groups remain national and international problems. The solution to these issues, in whatever form, can only start with education. But even these long-standing concerns are dwarfed by the new global emergency of climate change. Whatever the future of the world, education must be a catalyst in rethinking how we treat the planet and in adjusting to the new reality of how climate change will dramatically effect communities, nations, peoples and cultures.
The degree includes several modules that directly address such big questions, and aims to support you in becoming an expert in understanding not just how people are educated, but also the role education plays in sustained and life-long change, particularly in matters of social justice, sustainability and the environment.
Who is this course for?
Education Studies has always attracted students who are passionate about the role education plays in people’s lives and are interested in finding out about the learning process, how humans learn and the role educational settings play in shaping how people see the world. More than this however, if you also feel passionate about the challenges the world faces, particularly issues regarding sustainability and social justice you are likely to feel at home on the course.
Education studies is also very attractive to students who are not quite ready to specialise in one particular area. Because it has a base in a variety of fields - particularly sociology, psychology, history and philosophy – it is a great course to choose if you want a general background in a variety of topics rather than be constrained to just one area. The great advantage to this is the breadth of knowledge you will gain.
