Study Details: 1 (FT) / 2 (PT) year programme
Full-time or part-time study
Eager to bring together your disciplinary and educational practice? Join us to learn how to design and deliver experimental education as part of a diverse community of creative people.
We’ve designed this course for professionals who want to explore the possibilities of education in a range of different formal and informal contexts.
We bring students together as a community to explore different aspects of creative education. This involves themes such as curriculum design, the pedagogies of making, and education for change. We also encourage you to reflect on what you bring to the programme through your own values, perspectives and experiences.
Candidates are selected entirely on merit and applications are welcomed from all over the world.
The MEd in Creative Education will be suitable for:
Art and design educators in Higher Education, Further Education and other educational contexts
People aspiring to be art and design educators in Higher Education, Further Education and other educational contexts
Art and design practitioners with an interest in education and/or community engagement
People involved in community engagement and/or organisation
People involved in museum and/or gallery education
Educational developers
Applicants are welcome from those have successfully completed undergraduate, graduate diploma or postgraduate degrees and have an active interest in and engagement with creative education.
We do not require MEd applicants to submit a portfolio as part of an application. We are more interested in interest and engagement with creative education than previous experience.
This programme isn’t for those seeking to gain qualified teacher status (QTS) necessary to teach in primary, secondary and specialist schooling in the UK. This is not an accredited teaching qualification.
