Sheffield EdD Programme

The Sheffield EdD is one of the few EdDs in the country to have achieved ESRC recognition.

We're pleased to see that applications to the Sheffield EdD programme are healthy again this year. There are a few places remaining for October, 2013. If you are interested in applying to join the programme, please submit your application as soon as possible in order to avoid disappointment.

This is a part-time distance-learning, taught programme based around residential weekends. The weekends are held in Sheffield and run from 4pm Friday through to Sunday lunchtime (October, February and May each year) with an Induction Day for new students on the Friday of the first October weekend. The programme incorporates structured modules with a substantial thesis involving sustained research on a particular issue or topic. This is a broad and flexible research based programme that will be relevant to a range of professional and managerial careers.
