Course summary

Overview

Are you interested in undertaking research into your own professional practice in education? Then our professional doctorate in Education, the EdD, is the course for you.

What's covered in this course?

On the course you will get a grounding in the essential skills required to articulate and interrogate the key issues relating to education policy, the changing role of social institutions, aspects of pedagogy, and the implications for multiple and fluid professional identities on everyday education practice in a context of global interconnectedness and interdependence.

During the course you will improve your practice and make a significant contribution to your continuing professional development. We know youre busy practitioners, so the course is tailored to that and will enable you to embed your research in your everyday practice.

Youll explore the relationship between knowledge, theory and practice and demonstrate your understanding of how it is possible to make and influence change. To do this well help you develop creative and innovative approaches for integrating academic and professional knowledge as well as design and implement research which draws upon your appreciation of knowledge that occurs in professional settings.

This intensive course offers a range of teaching and learning approaches in small groups, led by academics who are writing and publishing in a range of related areas. This course encourages innovative and creative approaches to educational research and draws on a wider pool of experts from across the University to support work in visual methods and new media.

On completion of the course, our aim is that you have developed intuitive judgement, foresight and ability to conceptualise problems that typically impact on organisations, are able to develop appropriate solutions to problems by applying theoretical concepts, and a range of research skills and approaches that youre able to employ. Youll also have skills to communicate academic principles and concepts effectively to professional colleagues and the scholarly community.

What is an EdD?

An EdD is a research Degree which is part-time and designed for professionals already working in the field of Education. The EdD has a structure which allows module study in the first two years which supports the transition to the Thesis stage. The focus for the EdD is on close to practice research in Education and the modules develop the required Doctoral skills and research knowledge to address a particular area of research interest. Whilst on the EdD students are also supported with their research by a team of tutors and supervisors.
