Develop your understanding of children, childhood, and youth. Choose from three different pathways depending on your interests, previous experience, and career goals. Graduate capable of working in a wide range of sectors. Are you passionate about working with children and young people? Are you ready to take your career with children and young people further? This ground-breaking and highly-flexible postgraduate course could be perfect for you. You will be taught by experienced and passionate lecturers with professional backgrounds in children and young people, early years, and youth work. You will study a range of modules and gain an understanding of the theoretical perspectives through which childhood and young people are currently understood and defined within interdisciplinary contexts. You will also critically reflect upon current legislation, policy, and practice relating to children and young people. You will evaluate organisational structures and provision which regulates and promotes children’s and young people’s status, welfare, health and wellbeing, learning, and how multi-agency working impacts on childhood and youth contexts. You will interpret different political issues and events, past and present, that impact on children and young people. You will also develop your knowledge and skills in research which will enable you to undertake advanced research projects in the social sciences.
