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.
This is particularly the case for girls, the poor and young people from rural and marginalised communities living in developing countries and societies affected by conflict. Even when education opportunities are available in these contexts, they often do not meet the needs of young people or those of their communities.
At best, education that is ill-conceived is of limited value. At worst, it can result in broken dreams, economic stagnation, socio-economic inequality, social exclusion and conflict.
The MA Education, International Development and Social Justice explores the sociology and political economy of education and learning within development, humanitarian and transnational contexts globally.
