Undergraduate courses starting in 2025

Studying education allows you to understand how humans develop and transform through learning.

You’ll be able to explore the social, psychological and political factors that influence how people gain knowledge and skills during childhood and beyond.

By studying with us, you’ll learn about topics like:

  • young people’s educational development
  • creating equal and sustainable educational environments
  • how governmental policies and educational practices impact learning

Through a blend of sociological, psychological and philosophical approaches, you’ll identify and examine the barriers to learning faced by many around the world. You’ll then learn how to address these challenges and positively impact people’s lives.

Our course in this subject is delivered by the Department of Education, with relevant units taught by the Department of Psychology.
