Our rewarding Master’s programme will prepare you for opportunities in a wide range of careers such as educational policy and programming in countries in the Global South, influential government departments, and prestigious national and international development agencies and NGOs.
On this one-year full-time MA Education and Development course, you’ll join a vibrant academic community dedicated to excellence and driven by a shared passion for making a difference.
You’ll explore how education can contribute to global development, examining diverse approaches including human rights, social justice, and human capital theory, as well as critical perspectives on the role of education in addressing inequalities.
