How do people learn? What affects their learning? And which role does education play in society? These are the questions examined by Educational Studies. Opt for a degree with a future and become a leader in educational processes beyond the classroom.

Education and its role in society are the focus of York’s new degree program in Educational Studies. Develop essential skills to succeed in educational work outside of the traditional classroom. The Faculty of Education’s workplace-based learning offers you an opportunity to put theory into practice, acquire workplace-specific skills and enhance your professional networks, all while completing your degree. Graduate as an educator ready to make a difference anywhere people share and distribute knowledge to the benefit of their communities. An Educational Studies degree will allow you to make an impact in roles such as education policy analyst, learning consultant, career counsellor or developer of education programs.
