Bachelor of Arts - Childhood Studies (Including Year Abroad) (L521)

专业介绍

Childhood studies is a vibrant and exciting field which has expanded in recent years to include knowledge from psychology, sociology and psychoanalysis. This course lays the foundations for a career working with infants and children, whether in education, health care or children’s services. Students gain a solid understanding of child development, the ecology of childhood (the place of children in different societies) and consider the way our concepts of childhood shape and condition children’s lives. Students will also learn about the direct work with children through undertaking a placement in each year of study where they can begin to make links between theory and practice. Assessment is mainly by course work.

Topics include:

• Psychosocial approaches
• Child development
• Attachment theory
• ADHD, developmental trauma and Autism
• Criminological approaches
• Play and infant observation
• The social history of childhood
• Children in literature
• Therapeutic work in groups
• Wellbeing and resilience
