Summary
Education, in all its forms, is essential to a thriving society. How organisations, systems and people learn and change profoundly affects our lives, our surroundings and our futures. This MSc is a bold and innovative programme for those who wish to engage critically with educational possibilities for the future, and understand how educational knowledge, organisations, spaces and relationships can positively shape societies.
This pioneering programme responds to the need for creative, critical and experimental thinking across education in schools, universities and colleges, and learning within communities, industries and organisations.
Some of the issues you will explore include: - global change: the intersection of education with migration, conflict, health, climate crisis and worldwide transformations
-
social justice and mobility: promoting equity, inclusion and challenging disadvantage
-
culture: how cultural contexts, creativity and society influence learning
-
data-driven systems: how AI and digital technologies reshape teaching and knowledge
-
politics: the impact of policy, power and ideology on learning systems
-
future of work and creativity: the role of education in shaping skills, innovation and adaptability in rapidly changing economies
You will explore the ways that knowledge, culture and skills are produced and reproduced, how people, organisations and systems learn, and how this influences global challenges and change.
