Our MA Education allows you to consider education in all of its complexity, as something that both reflects and works to construct different aspects of our social lives and the way our society is organised.
This course aims to strengthen and refine your ability to critically reflect upon your own teaching. You will engage with contemporary theories in education and examine how you might apply them to the practice you carry out. It is ideal for those who are looking to take the next step in their career within the education/teaching sector.
We have designed a course that is extremely flexible and meets the needs of individuals and organisations. These include:
With an advanced education degree from the University of Nottingham, you will graduate with all the knowledge, practical skills and confidence to pursue your career goals.
We welcome approaches from educational organisations looking for a bespoke programme for their staff.
2:1 honours degree (or international equivalent)
Applicants with a 2:2 degree and three years or more full-time relevant professional experience in education-related positions will be considered. Relevant professional work experience includes those with experience in teaching or a role directly engaged with education. A teaching qualification that includes a substantial placement-based component, for example PGCE, can be considered as part of this work experience.
