Programme description
Our Bachelor programme prepares educationalists, who are dedicated to helping schools, teachers, students, and other actors with the purpose of making a difference in education. Driven by a strong commitment to democracy, diversity, social justice, and solidarity, our BA programme is designed to facilitate students’ active engagement with current educational and social problems. We strive to support our students’ engagement with a solid and interdisciplinary framework, which contains courses such as history of education, philosophy of education, sociology of education, education policy, educational economics, pedagogical psychology, social pedagogy, etc. Beyond the individual development and special mentoring of the students, our Department puts great emphasis also on involving each into the life of the Wesley community. Becoming a citizen of the College and the Department of Education means
- gaining insight into and taking an active part in the research and development projects, professional-public programs of the Department,
- getting involved in the daily life of the campus, which consists not only of academic praxis, but of activism, mutual aid, and cooperation as well,
- experiencing attention and support with special regards to the themes and topics you decide to study in more depth.
It is especially important for us to create an inclusive and supportive environment for all our students, and especially for those exposed to difficult social and economical conditions either because growing up in marginalized areas, living with disabilities, or having a young child alone. We try to provide support by means of additional services (dormitory, childcare, accessibility), scholarships and reduced tuition.
