Two modules completed successfully entitle you to the award of Postgraduate Certificate in Art and Design Education. Four modules completed successfully entitle you to the award of Postgraduate Diploma in Art and Design Education. On successful completion of the four coursework modules, you may undertake a further double module that has a credit rating of 60 to be awarded the degree of Master of Arts in Art and Design Education. Students are expected to be actively involved in sessions where they may typically present oral reports in seminars, or report on developing research. Assessment of modules is typically by the submission of the equivalent of a 5,000-word assignment, essay, paper or report, or a seminar or other presentation, exhibition, or teaching and learning materials supported by a shorter report.
Assessment varies according to particular module requirements.
Students progressing to Masters Level are required to submit a dissertation or project report of not less than 20,000 words representing a supervised in-depth individual enquiry into an issue or topic of importance in the field of Art and Design Education, which would normally arise out of the course work modules. Application forms should be returned to the Academic Registry in Leicester.
