Course summary
Inclusion is part of a modern education system and as countries around the world adopt legislation that increases access for students with disabilities- there is a greater need for specialists and that is increasing every day.
University sponsorships are not available for part-time applicants. If you are a part-time applicant who requires visa sponsorship, please refer to our visa categories for further information.
The UAE is leading the region in inclusive initiatives from Expo 2020 to their schools. New education policies across the country have increased the need of schools and organizations to hire experts in disability, inclusion and special education needs. The University of Birmingham has always been a leading research and teaching institution in the area of disability, inclusion and special needs, now that expertise is available in Dubai.
Why study this degree?
Our part-time ISEN course is tailored for students wanting to practise in Dubai, but is flexible enough to give you an understanding of the global legislation. We will encourage you to be critical thinkers, considering disability in different contexts to give you a broad understanding of disability, culture and inclusion.
- This flexible degree looks at disability in an international context, allowing you to personalise your learning, and practise your expertise anywhere in the world
- We create advocates for inclusion and seek ways to break down barriers
- We use multiple assessments that allow you to showcase your learning in a meaningful way, from school improvement plans to academic essays
- You will study in a supportive international hub; we have had students from around the world including: India, Pakistan, Lebanon, the UK, Nigeria and South Africa. This will enable you to discuss disability and schooling systems with colleagues from around the globe, creating a deeper understanding of the complexity of disability.
The Inclusion and Special Educational Needs course has been designed to supplement professionals already working in the field. In general, this includes teachers, education advisors, special educational needs coordinators, head teachers in schools, managers of community and charitable organisations (NGOs) or a staff member of a Ministry of Education or Ministry of Health.
