The Summer School is an excellent opportunity for you to study face-to-face at the University of Bath whilst working toward your Doctor of Education (EdD) qualification.
At the Summer School you can:
- exchange ideas with other Doctor of Education (EdD) students and educators from around the world
- meet staff from our Department of Education and students from our MA Education and Postgraduate Certificate in International Education (PGCiE) courses
- enjoy the campus facilities
- visit the world-renowned city of Bath
You can study units at this event if you are a new or current student on our Doctor of Education (EdD) course.
If you are studying your first EdD unit at the Summer School, you will receive an introduction to the course on your first day.
