This MA equips you with the knowledge and skills you need to understand the complex relationship between education, international development and social justice within global contexts. This degree will help to prepare you for careers in international development, humanitarian assistance, research and consultancy with Government, NGOs, bilateral and multilateral organisations, research institutions and charities. This degree is particularly suitable for people who are passionate about education and making a difference yet who do not necessarily want to become teachers. Access to quality education is a fundamental human right. However, many young people around the world are unable to access it, complete the full education cycle or benefit from their education due to social, cultural, economic and political barriers.
