Disability Studies MA
Programme Leader, Prof David Bolt.
This programme is face to face, full-time or part-time, and available to October and February starters.
The programme is aligned with the Centre for Culture and Disability Studies and taught by tutors in the Faculty of Education and Social Science, Liverpool Hope University.
Disability Studies is a relatively new but rapidly growing academic discipline, as illustrated by the international proliferation of courses, events, networks, journals, book series, monographs, and edited collections. Though drawing on this progress substantially,
the Disability Studies MA at Liverpool Hope University differs from similar programmes insofar as it places particular emphasis on cultural issues. We are not only interested in the policies, prejudices, and professions around disability, but also its representation
in literature, media, film, art, and so on.
Liverpool Hope University is well suited as a host for this programme. The regional, national, and international profile of the programme is enhanced greatly by the Centre for Culture & Disability Studies–and, by extension, the Journal of Literary & Cultural
Disability Studies, the seminars and conferences, the YouTube channel, the Literary Disability Studies book series, the Autocritical Disability Studies book series, the Cultural History of Disability multi-volume project, the Oxford Research Encyclopedia of
Disability Studies, and an enthusiastic team of widely-published tutors.
The modules included are Critical Disability Theory; Disability and Professional Practice; Modelling Disability; Disability and Disciplines; Research Methods; and a Dissertation.
The taught elements of the course include, for full-time students, two evenings per week (6-9pm), and for part-time students, one evening per week. These classes are held at Hope Park.
