Thematic hubs
With over 250 research staff and students, Moray House School of Education and Sport has a vibrant and expanding research community with a broad portfolio of academic disciplines gathered within seven broad research themes with permeable boundaries.
Our seven thematic hubs
The Advanced Quantitative Research in Education Thematic Hub builds interdisciplinary connections and creates grounds for cross-fertilisation among researchers using advanced quantitative methods.
This Thematic Hub draws together a wide range of research topics relevant to children and young people. It involves a number of intersecting groups: Childhood and Youth Studies, Comparative Education and International Development; Developmental Psychology; Early Years Research, Policy and Practice; and End Violence Lab.
The Digital Education Thematic Hub considers the intersection of education with technology, and the impact of digital change on culture, policy and practice.
The Language, Interculturality and Literacies Hub focuses on the nature and roles of language(s) in learning. It brings together a broad range of fields into three key groupings: Language, Literacies and Interculturality.
The Social Justice and Inclusion Thematic Hub continues the long tradition and commitment of Moray House to research and knowledge exchange aimed at understanding and addressing inequality and injustice.
The Sport-Related Research Thematic Hub is committed to the creation, dissemination and curation of world leading research and knowledge exchange in sport, physical education, physical activity for health and human performance science.
Teacher Education, Curriculum and Pedagogy Thematic Hub focuses on teachers and teaching and develops innovative work on curriculum and pedagogy.
