The course is available either as the Education MA or the Education MA with pathway choices in:

Special Educational Needs and Disability and Inclusion

The Education MA will enhance your employment and career opportunities in complex professional environments that require sound judgement, personal responsibility and initiative.

If you successfully complete your Education MA, it will offer you a route into employment in a range of educational-related fields either on graduation or via further professional study. If you would like to consider further study in education, perhaps PGCE teacher training, a taught Doctorate of Education or a research based PhD, you will be warmly encouraged by the department with the opportunity of discounted fees as a Brunel graduate.
