Higher Education Studies MA

The MA Higher Education Studies is designed to give you critical insight into the changing field of Higher Education, reflecting on important debates nationally and internationally. The programme encourages you to explore, share and challenge existing knowledge and experience by engaging with different ideas, concepts, and values. You will examine Higher Education policy and practices in relation to your own experience. The programme will develop your understanding of conceptual and analytical frameworks in professional practices and processes, increasing your knowledge, skills and confidence to operate effectively and creatively in diverse institutions in Higher Education. <br/><br/>**Modular (flexible) students - Some postgraduate taught and MRes programmes are available on a modular basis. Modular study lasts between 2 and 5 years. This is different to a part-time study which lasts for a fixed period.**
