BSc Education Studies considers how education can contribute towards changing societies and individuals. You will explore how learning happens at all ages, from very young children to older adults. You will learn about education in a range of settings; from schools and universities, to online communities, social movements, workplaces, and care homes. You will develop expertise in UK education and will study global, international, and comparative educational perspectives. The course currently includes an optional placement unit, Education in Practice, where you can apply your learning and gain valuable workplace experience through a placement in a school, charitable organisation, business, museum, community group, or research setting. This degree is great preparation for careers anywhere that education matters, including routes into primary teaching, education policy, opportunities in the public or private sectors, and careers with charitable organisations. This degree is also available as a four-year course, which includes studying overseas.
