Is a postgraduate taught course right for you?
Postgraduate study gives you the opportunity to work with new concepts on a deeper level, sharing your ideas with like-minded individuals, and shaping your contribution as part of our research-active community.
A postgraduate taught course is ideal if you are looking to:
- progress from undergraduate study
- explore a new subject of interest
- prepare for a research degree
- acquire new and specialised skills
- enhance your career opportunities.
During your studies you will be supported by a Personal Tutor and can expect to attend a combination of seminars and tutorials along with preparing supervised coursework. Some programmes also require the completion of an assessed dissertation and/or an examination.
