MSc in Education in Higher Education

The MSc Education (Higher Education) at the University of Oxford provides a broad introduction to the complex field of theories and practice in higher education globally. The increasing significance of university rankings, the growing range of international student exchange schemes and public discussion of the vocationalisation of degree programmes, are just some of the current issues within higher education in many countries. Debates about the benefits of higher education to graduates, employers and the state underpin considerations of student fees and how they should be funded. Teaching sessions will combine tutor input and class discussion, plus small group working.
