Bachelor of Arts (Honours) - Education Studies and English Language

During this course, students will study the fundamental structures and theoretical principles of English and language in general, and use them to understand and analyse spoken and written English discourse in context. This may include investigating sounds, word meanings, sentence structures, discourse analytical principles, child language acquisition, and language variation and change. Students will be offered a variety of assessment types, including standard essays, presentations, data collection projects, exercises, transcriptions, dissertation and even blogs. This will help to equip them with the academic experiences they need to make the most of employment opportunities following their undergraduate degree and/or postgraduate study.

Education Studies will provide students with excellent knowledge of theory and how this relates to practice in education. Combined with another subject, this course builds on the disciplines of sociology, philosophy, psychology, political science and history to enable them to develop knowledge and skills in the academic study of education.
