Course summary
The Professional Doctorate in Education (EdD) at Swansea University is a part time programme designed for teachers or senior leaders in schools who want to progress professionally in the education sector more broadly. The programme combines a research approach with a curriculum consisting of taught modules.
The EdD is designed to further explore educational matters through interdisciplinary and experiential teaching and learning, supported by the latest research insights. Throughout your academic experience, you will receive pastoral support from personal tutors and the programme director via online and in person meetings.
As a student on our Professional Doctorate, you'll cultivate a sophisticated comprehension of diverse educational challenges, exploring the abilities and expertise necessary for conducting and assessing independent research.
The structure of the EdD comprises of a taught phase which includes five modules taken over 3 years, and a research phase, during which time you will produce a doctoral thesis. During the research phase you will undertake your own research, to be presented and defended during a viva voce examination, as with other doctoral programmes. Due to the nature of the programme, the level of commitment to research and dedication to study and research time is essential and should be considered alongside other lifestyle commitments.
