Gain key skills

On successful completion of this course, you'll have gained:

  • a thorough understanding of current educational issues including those connected to equality, diversity and inclusion
  • the ability to use this understanding to enhance your professional practice
  • the ability to recognise ways in which research and theory are used in education and how to apply these effectively in your own academic and professional work

Apply your skills with a consultancy project

The consultancy project is an alternative to a dissertation. It offers you the opportunity to use the knowledge and research skills you’ll develop during your studies to work on an issue or strategic priority with an external organisation.

Projects are research-based and typically developed in collaboration with an organisation, such as a school, university, governmental department or education provider. This collaborative aspect means that you’ll be looking at a current challenge, which will allow you to demonstrate your academic learning in a real-world context and enhance your CV.

Consultancy projects may involve activities such as:

  • critical evaluation of existing policies or practices
  • research-informed proposals for improvement or reform
  • internationalisation-related projects
  • analysis to support institutional strategy, development, or marketing
  • community engagement or outreach initiatives
  • critical analysis of organisational or sector-level data

Once you have designed and completed an appropriate piece of research, you’ll present your findings and recommendations as a presentation and written academic report.

Consultancy project places are limited each year. You will be supported to identify and develop a feasible project in collaboration with an organisation, either through one of our external partners or via your own professional network. If a suitable project cannot be secured, you will complete a dissertation instead.

Learn from experts in their field

You will learn from experts in our Department of Education. Their knowledge and contemporary research — spanning areas like sociology, psychology, linguistics, international development and the arts — shapes their teaching to enhance your learning experience.

  • teaching (in schools and other contexts)
  • lecturing
  • professional training
  • educational leadership
  • educational management and administration
  • educational consultancy
  • policy development
  • stakeholder liaison roles
  • international development
  • project management
  • community engagement

You'll also be prepared for positions in national and international education organisations including charities, learning companies, awarding organisations, non-governmental organisations (NGOs) and governmental departments.

As well as this, you’ll benefit from access to additional employability support through our skills enrichment programme, Skills for Success.

As an MA Education student, you’ll benefit from the Department of Education’s extensive global professional networks and its connections with schools and educational organisations. Through these connections you will gain access to resources and collaborative opportunities to enhance your learning. You’ll also have access to campus-based networking opportunities including departmental workshops and seminars.

An accredited degree may entitle you to work in a specific profession within the UK, and abroad (where there are reciprocating arrangements with professional bodies in other countries).

The requirements to practise a profession vary from country to country. If you wish to practise your profession outside the United Kingdom, you are advised to confirm that the UK professional qualification you seek is valid in the country in which you are intending to work.
