This innovative programme links theory with research, policy and practice, and critically engages with the educational challenges of developing countries. It takes a multidisciplinary education and development perspective to analyse the complex educational issues of resource-constrained and/or rapidly expanding educational systems. The programme is geared to students with professional experience in education and development, and to those with a strong academic background in a relevant discipline. You have the opportunity to develop research skills and to specialise in one of five areas. Most students aim to develop or strengthen their expertise for work in a government department, development agency or non-governmental organisation, for research or consultancy.
