Conversion courses: postgraduate

Want to change direction?

Considering postgraduate study but want to change direction away from the focus of your undergraduate degree? A postgraduate conversion course is ideal for you, and could be a valuable investment in your future, as it will allow you to explore a vocational field and enhance your job prospects.

Graduates may be eligible for courses offered through other Colleges, and do not need to concentrate their search for a programme in their own specific College. For example, an Arts graduate could choose to apply to a Law course (e.g., LLB) or a Business course (e.g., HDip [Business Studies]).
