Education University of Plymouth

Overview

If you are responsible for leading learning in a school, college or higher education institution whether in the public or private sector, or if you are involved in education or training in business and industry or a third sector organisation, this doctoral-level Education course from University of Plymouth is a fantastic opportunity to study education at a deep level and relate this back to your own practice

Collaborate with the University of Plymouth

Study at HKU SPACE with internationally and nationally recognised education researchers based in the  Institute of Education at the University of Plymouth, UK.

The Professional Doctorate in Education enables you to:

• Study an internationally recognised UK EdD qualification in Hong Kong supported by in-person and virtual lectures and seminars.

• Focus your attention on the nature of educational practice itself in an international context. Approach education in its broadest sense. Study and theorise the nature of your work from a social perspective – then relate this back to your own practice.

• Engage with a range of new ideas with which to re-think educational practice on a carefully organised course with a clear structure based on a social perspective on education.

• Study on a flexible and work-friendly programme that has been structured to fit around your existing commitments.

• Begin to engage with new educational theory at the University-based sessions. Participate in lively discussions and share ideas with others on your course in seminars, lectures and workshops.

• Access a wide range of support and resources to fuel your independent study. Draw on books, journals and an online environment where you will communicate with and draw support from your peers and from research active academic staff with a long history of excellence in professional development.

• Meet and share ideas with others in your cohort from a range of disciplines. Tap into this diversity to compare the interrelationship between policy and practice across different educational areas, institutions and international contexts.

• Make your mark on the future of education as part of our learning community where you can link into active and renowned research networks.

• Join the international professional doctoral symposium held at the University of Plymouth, either in person or virtually/online.
