The Study of Education as a University Subject in Britain.
Simon, Brian
Studies in Higher Education, v8 n1 p1-13 1983
The first chairs in education were established in Scotland in 1876; education departments were founded in English universities in the late 1890s. Discussed are the four periods through which the study of education in Britain passed. Education as a specific focus of study did not enter universities until the 1960s. (Author/RM)
