Postgraduate programmes

Tuition fees 2012/13

Postgraduate programmes are made up of a series of modules. Modules have variable credit ratings and are accumulated towards an award:

• Postgraduate Certificate (PgCert) = 60 credit points

• Postgraduate Diploma (PgDip) = 120 credit points

• Masters (e.g MSc, MA) =  normally 180 credit points

Credit points are cumulative so if you complete a Postgraduate Diploma (120 credit points) you only require a further 60 credits for the Masters award (180 credits). Students may exit at different points in most programmes (dependent on course regulations) and obtain a Postgraduate Certificate or Postgraduate Diploma, as long as they have successfully accumulated the required number of credit points.

Please see our full schedule of fees for 2012/13 for full information on fees.
