Programme overview
The MEd in Education provides you with the opportunity to build your own flexible programme. You will take the compulsory research methods unit, Introduction to Educational Inquiry, and a dissertation, and choose the rest of your units from across the programmes offered by the Graduate School of Education. Your final choice of units will follow consultation with tutors in order to ensure that your choice is as coherent and useful as possible as well as suiting your individual needs.
This probably is particularly suitable for those who already hold M-level credits from a teaching qualification (eg PGCE).
Entry requirements
