• choosing your postgraduate course

  doing a postgraduate courses is a fantastic way to widen your career prospects and gain more detailed knowledge in a particular area that you find interesting. we offer a number of postgraduate courses at our university and we encourage you to take a look at our postgraduate courses or research degrees to find the right course for you.

  a postgraduate qualification is the next level after a bachelor’s degree. our postgraduate courses will give you the opportunity to study in a lot more depth the subjects you studied during your bachelor degree. we offer both full-time and distance learning (dl) postgraduate courses. if you are studying full-time, your postgraduate course will usually be shorter than an undergraduate course – on average taking a year to complete. whereas with distance learning courses, the course duration might be slightly longer than if you were studying full-time.

  the best way to find out more about our postgraduate courses, and to make your decision of where to study, is to come and speak to us.

  we have dedicated postgraduate drop-in sessions at all of our open days throughout the year. at these sessions you can drop-in to speak to our postgraduate representatives from the faculty in which you are looking to study to find out more about the course, ask any specific queries and to see the facilities and services we offer, including a tour of our new waterside campus.

  please visit our postgraduate events page to find out when the next postgraduate-drop in session will take place.
