Overview
The Education and Social Justice (by thesis and coursework) course from Lancaster University focuses on the issues and concerns at the heart of your professional practice and aims to train you as an autonomous researcher.
Key facts:
Working with world-leading, research-active academics, you will be encouraged to develop your own ideas in a structured and supportive research environment.
We are wholly committed to developing future researchers through an egalitarian approach. You and your global peers will connect with programme tutors and departmental staff, providing the opportunity to benefit from their extensive and diverse research experience and broad spectrum of interests, which reaches from end-to-end educationally; early childhood to lifelong learning.
You will become a member of our research hub, the Centre for Social Justice and Wellbeing in Education, which takes a multi-disciplinary approach to explorations of equity, diversity, inclusion and wellbeing. Contextual settings for projects include schools, higher education, home and the workplace. The common threads of social justice and education weave us all together but are broadly interpreted to allow individual interests and areas of professional practice to come to the fore as you establish your research identity.
