It combines theory and practice to build critical thinking and research-informed understanding, with a focus on responding to contemporary educational challenges in professional settings.
The course covers broad areas of educational study, with flexibility to shape learning through optional study choices. Its emphasis on curriculum, pedagogy, leadership and technology gives the programme a wide educational perspective, while also supporting progression to further postgraduate study.
