About Professional Doctorate in Education, EdD - at University of Nottingham

This course enables experienced education professionals to develop the critical knowledge to undertake their own research and broaden the horizons of their own professional work.  

Our EdD combines the research elements of a PhD with significant taught components. Allowing you to share and acquire knowledge from your classmates and gain a unique understanding of different educational practices and contexts.   

You will devise your own arguments and critical standpoint in relation to education research.  

You will benefit from: 

  • our links to practice - allowing you to draw on your own educational experiences 
  • weekend and summer classes - our course has been designed for busy professionals who may be studying alongside a full-time job 
  • a strong cohesive cohort of education practitioners
