“Within two months of starting the MA, I applied for a new job and breezed through the interview using material I learned on the course.”

Regeneration is currently one of the main pillars of central and local government policy and practitioners in regeneration need to have a broad overview of the social and political systems within which their services operate, as well as enhanced knowledge of best practice in terms of delivering regeneration programmes. Voluntary and private sector organisations also have a crucial role to play in delivering the regeneration agenda. The awards in Regeneration provide students with an overview of the various dimensions of regeneration and aspects of regeneration management including such areas as partnership working, community involvement and effective strategic planning. Students attain skills relevant to practitioners working in the voluntary and community sector, local government and private sector organisations. This award will also be of value if you are considering regeneration as a possible career route.

The learning experience will be focused upon discussion, critical debate and the development and application of a series of advanced work-related skills and competencies. The MAs are designed to relate directly to your work and to enable you to enhance your critical understanding of the broader policy context in which you are operating. You will also be asked to evaluate methods of managing community and regeneration practices and their relevance to the situations and themes that occur in your work-place.

The MA is an internationally-recognised qualification which will significantly enhance your career prospects, whether you are relatively new to the area of regeneration or you have many years of experience in the voluntary, community, public or private sectors.
