Our Doctor of Education (EdD) is an ideal development opportunity if youre a senior education professional seeking to enhance and utilise your research expertise. Whatever your area of education from schools, colleges, early years provision, and universities to professional, work-based and lifelong learning, or policy development earning an EdD will position you as a leader in your field. Our Doctor of Education is tailored to the needs of busy professionals, and combines an excellent grounding in research methods and educational theory with the opportunity to put your research to work in improving professional policy and practice. The EdD will enable you to develop research on your own chosen topics in ways that are deeply connected to important professional interests, practices, policies and impacts. Like the PhD, the EdD meets the requirements for the production of a significant, original and rigorous contribution to the field. Distinctively, the EdD course starts with taught modules before the supervised research phases begin.
