Distance learning available
September
5 years distance learning
19 November 2018
This online distance learning programme offers a professionally relevant and academically rigorous opportunity for advanced study in education. The programme is designed for professionals at all levels in education, training and development, and in education-related fields.
Years 1, 2 and 3
You will take six core courses (one per semester), each requiring participation in a study weekend in Glasgow.
Years 4 and 5
Work towards the submission of a dissertation of 50,000 to 60,000 words, supported by an appropriate supervisory team.
Progressing at a normal pace, successful candidates can complete the Doctorate in five years. However, we realise that circumstances occasionally mean participants need to take a break from studies and the programme allows candidates to suspend their studies for a limited time period.
Programme alteration or discontinuation
The University of Glasgow endeavours to run all programmes as advertised. In exceptional circumstances, however, the University may withdraw or alter a programme. For more information, please see: Student contract.
This programme will give you the skills and confidence to further advance your career – to the highest levels in education and education-related fields.
