Learning, teaching, training, and research are profoundly affected by the challenges and opportunities posed by the digital acceleration in education. Since 2006, the MSc in Digital Education has given professionals in education - whether in higher or further education, schools, NGOs, commercial organisations, and government ministries - the critical insight they need in this fast-moving and richly diverse field.
The Digital Education programme is delivered fully online and is designed as a part-time programme, with the majority of participants studying over a period of 3-4 years.
The programme is distinctive for its innovative design, its breadth of scope, the high level of support provided to students and its basis in the research activity of the Centre for Research in Digital Education. Our tutors are actively researching in this field and bringing that research to their teaching.
