Postgraduate study develops your skills, supports your career progression and allows for rich personal development.
Enhanced earning potential
A masters won’t just help you to get a job, it will also help you to earn more money. Students with a postgraduate degree can expect to earn £5,500 more a year than those with just a bachelor’s – that’s around £200,000 in a working lifetime (Source: Sutton Trust).
Career-changing possibilities
You could use a postgraduate degree to change career – not every programme requires you to have studied the subject before.
Career progression
A masters is an opportunity to build on your knowledge and become an expert in a particular discipline, and you’re more likely to be in high-skilled employment – 77% of working-age postgraduates are in high-skilled employment, compared with 65% of all working age graduates (Source: NUS).
