Program Description

Gain an advanced understanding of how children learn and develop through play with Swansea's Master’s degree in Developmental and Therapeutic Play. Students will explore evidence-based practice in play across a range of professional contexts, combining in-depth theory with fieldwork experience. This includes how the environment and social interactions support children’s growing repertoire of play skills, with a particular emphasis on the inherent value of children’s self-directed play experiences. Throughout the studies, students will refine critical research and analytical skills valued by employers and develop professional reflective practice techniques.
