University of Warwick MA Global Education and International Development

About MA Global Education and International Development

Education plays a variety of often contradictory roles in public debates, policy discourses, and academic research related to globalisation and international development. Education may be seen as the silver bullet, the solution to global inequalities and the vehicle for economic and social development. Alternatively, education is blamed for not delivering its promise, or even for reproducing or exacerbating the very problems it was supposed to solve. Education systems and institutions are themselves sites which are affected by patterns of globalisation and policy changes regarding development and aid.

Increasingly we are moving into a ‘post-development’ era, where it is no longer possible to separate the globe into clear-cut regions that are designated as ‘developed’ and ‘developing’: local, regional and international connections and transitions demand that we re-focus attempts to understand and theorise the role of education in contemporary society. Education policy and practice faces the imperative of adapting to enhanced mobility and immobility, changing political regimes, and the ever-shifting relationship between education and social change.

MA Global Education and International Development addresses a complex array of interconnected challenges and issues in relation to education, understood in its broadest sense. The programme brings together theoretical and conceptual challenges with applied considerations for education practitioners and development interventions.

Please note that if you wish to study on a part time basis you should be aware that all core modules are taught during the normal working day and there is no out of hours provision. If this is a consideration for you please contact us prior to applying so that we can advise you further.

Suitable For

Do you work in the education sector and hope to increase the global reach of your work?

Or do you have an international development background and want to specialise in education issues?

Do you aspire to critically engage with some of the most important questions of the current moment?

Would you like to improve both your knowledge and your practical skills in the area of Global Education and International Development?

If one or more of these statements applies to you, this taught Master’s programme on Global Education and International Development could be for you.

What’s it like to study with a UK university?

0

From world-renowned universities and an open and friendly culture to stunning natural beauty and a vibrant and diverse nightlife, there are plenty of reasons to study in the UK. We delve deeper into what you can expect from your UK university experience.

We speak with Michael Bissell, Head of International Recruitment at the University of Birmingham.

What are classes like at UK universities?

At the University of Birmingham face to face teaching is delivered through a range of different formats depending on the programme of study. These include:

Lectures

Interactive workshops

Seminars

Computer laboratories

All our teaching is supported with a variety of online resources. We try very hard to make teaching and learning as inclusive as possible, something which is really important as some of our programmes contain students that come from as many as 50 different countries.

What teaching style can I expect?

Teaching styles will differ depending on the format of each class.

However, in general students are expected to play active roles in their learning, through class discussions, asking questions, or challenging the concepts being presented.

One of the most interesting parts of UK higher education is that lecturers have the freedom to design lectures and classes based on their subject area. This means there can be more variety in how classes are taught than in other kinds of education and learning.

How are exams marked?

All work is marked against a set of assessment criteria which relates to the learning outcomes for that specific assessment and module.

Whilst each assessment will have its own set of assessment criteria, typically most assessments will include criteria related to:

The depth of knowledge and understanding of the subject area

The quality of the arguments

Analysis and structure contained in the work

The amount of relevant content and evidence of your own independent reading

Research and thinking

The quality of the presentation and writing style

The quality of the referencing and sources used in the work

When we’ve awarded a mark, we provide individual feedback on your work, so that you can develop in the future.

What is the UK higher education writing style?

Throughout a master’s degree, students are expected to write in a range of different styles depending on the format of the assessments such as essays, reports, blogs or reflections.

There is a lot of space for creativity, as all our subjects are social sciences. However, in all writing students are expected to use good academic practice such as using sources effectively, paragraphing and referencing.

How should international students prepare for UK study?

Research your course before applying and do some background reading! Exactly which books to read will depend on the programme to be studied. However, in general, there are some excellent introductory subject guides, published by Sage, that are all called ‘A Very Short, Fairly Interesting, Reasonably Cheap Book About Studying (e.g) International Marketing, Cross-Cultural Management, Leadership’. They’re all designed to be easy to read and are at the forefront of current research.

If you’re thinking about applying for a fully funded Chevening Scholarship this year, we hope this blog answers some of your questions about what you can expect from the high-quality teaching at UK universities. Good luck

Utrecht University First talent Scholarships for International Students Master’s programme in the Netherlands

0

Talented students from among others, Azerbaijan, Bangladesh and Colombia have been awarded the first LEG-ITS scholarships, in full: the Law, Economics and Governance – International Talent Scholarships.

The LEG-ITS scholarships amount to 5000 euro for students who have to pay the statutory tuition fee (from EU / EAA countries) and 17.500 euro for students who have to pay the “institutional tuition fee” (most non-EU / EAA countries) . The students must be able to present excellent academic results, a career vision and prove their societal engagement. More information about the criteria for eligibility can be found on the LEG-ITS webpage.

In addition to these new scholarships, the Utrecht Excellent Scholarships and the Holland Scholarships were also awarded, as were the KABS, the Kofi Annan Business School scholarships.

The recipients of the LEG-ITS (2018-2019) are:

Utrecht University School of Law
1 student from Mexico for the Legal Reseach Master
1 student from Azerbaijan for Public International Law
1 student from Germany  for Public International Law
1 student from Italy for the Legal Reseach Master
1 student from Romania for Law and Economics (LLM track)

1 student from Russia for International Management

Utrecht University School of Governance
1 student from Brazil for European Governance
1 student from Taiwan for Research in Public Administration and Organizational Science

Personal story of a scholarship recipient of last year 

The LEG faculty also supports other scholarships like the Kofi Annan Business School (KABS) scholarships. Student Nsamwa Mwale, from Zambia, received one last year and explains what this has meant for her.

“One of the many things I have taken from my experience here, is the value of different cultures and being able to integrate them and get along. The teamwork has been remarkable and has made me more open and  expressive than I have ever been. I learnt to have an opinion that matters.

My Masters program (MSc. Business Development and Entrepreneurship) applied a different and more interactive and realistic approach to learning, which was a lot different from my bachelors and it involved a lot of group work and self studying. It was a push out of my comfort zone and sometimes very stressful. The moment I got a grip on what was going on, It was a smoother sail after.

Overall, when I get back to my home country, I will definitely not be the same person I was coming here. The exposure has been awesome, I cannot wait to go and diffuse what I have learnt and picked up from here.”
