Gain a deep insight into the concepts of international education and globalisation, with a focus on how they intersect and interact.
Education is increasingly influenced by globalisation. We live in a more and more connected world, with a mobile and interlinked population. Because of this, education needs to evolve to meet the needs of a more interconnected society.
Education in a global context
Throughout this course, you’ll focus on education in a global context, looking beyond borders and regions. You’ll explore the growing trends and contradictions concerning international education. This will develop your understanding of how globalisation influences education policy and practice.
You’ll consider the relationship between globalisation and international education, and how this is affected by the roles of culture and by issues of inequality, sustainability and social justice.
Your studies will culminate in a final project. During this, you’ll have the freedom to choose a dissertation or a professional research project depending on your areas of interest and career aspirations.
You should have a bachelor’s honours degree or international equivalent, typically a 2:1 or above.
To apply for this course you may have an undergraduate degree in any subject.
We may make an offer based on a lower grade if you can provide evidence of your suitability for the degree (for example, professional experience in education).
