MA Disability Studies
If you are working or planning a career in the field of disability...
- And want to attend a course only one or two afternoons a week...
If you are a service provider, practitioner or policy maker...
- And wish to bridge the gap between your understanding of theory and practice...
...then MA in Disability Studies is the programme for you.
MA Disability Studies provides a comprehensive insight into the changing and challenging nature of disability theory, policy and research, and gives you the knowledge and skills to meet those challenges.
This unique and popular programme gives you the opportunity to explore theoretical and practical perspectives on a wide range of disability-related issues.
Offered on a modular basis, we have designed each module to examine the concepts associated with disablement in modern society and to provide a basic grounding in the principles and theories of each practice.
We explore disability as an equal opportunities issue through the study of contemporary organisations and institutionalised practices.
