Bachelor of Arts (Honours) - Education and English Language (XQH3)

A degree in Education is a dynamic and stimulating opportunity to study the individual, social, and political forces that shape education, in all its forms. For students who are interested in how and why people learn, both formally and informally, in the UK or abroad, then studying Education will challenge and excite them in equal measure.

Studying Education at Liverpool Hope University will help students to develop academically as they engage with evidence and research, professionally as they link theory to practice, preparing them for a wide variety of work contexts, and personally as they think more deeply about their own values and aspirations. It is structured around the four key disciplines of education: psychology, sociology, history, and philosophy. Each discipline provides a different lens through which key ideas and issues in education can be understood.

The English Language degree examines a wide range of varieties of English in their social, cultural and historical contexts. It teaches students how to closely analyze texts ranging from everyday discourse to fictional narratives to the language of the media.

Studying English Language provides students with a sound knowledge of how language is structured, how it developed and spread globally, and how it functions both in society and in people's minds, but it also equips them with a variety of practical critical and analytical skills. Liverpool Hope University prides themselves on offering a challenging and stimulating degree with a wide range of innovative teaching and assessment methods. The university places an emphasis on employability through how language is used for professional purposes and the practical and transferable skills valuable in selected careers.
