​Why do a EdD?

Theoretical and practical ideas in the Education sector​ are  constantly changing and evolving. Professionals working in this field need to engage with current research and develop their professional practice through continual professional development (CPD). The EdD pathway of the Professional Doctorate enables students to become research literate and to apply these skills to their everyday professional practice.  The EdD focuses on 'applied' research, related to students' individual research interests.  Academic and professional knowledge are used to focus on a 'change' project related to students' individual job role.

Testimonials


"Undertaking the EdD has been a challenging and rewarding experience to date. It has informed and extended my knowledge and practice to a higher level which has impacted positively on my confidence and professional identity. The opportunity to study with other professionals at Level 8 has provided valuable collaboration and networking opportunities. Working with my supervisory team and fellow students supports our vibrant, discursive research community."
