Postgraduate Research
Undergraduate degrees include BA (Hons), BEng (Hons), BSc (Hons) and LLB qualifications. We offer placements or study abroad options on the majority of our courses which can vary in length depending on the course.
Some courses offer a fully fundable undergraduate degree with the opportunity to undertake a year of study at master’s level.
Postgraduate degrees include MA and MSc qualifications. Master’s usually last one year. We also offer a two-year Advanced Practice option, where students may have the opportunity to undertake a 12-15 week internship, study abroad or research study project in your second year.
We have a vibrant community of postgraduate researchers, supported by excellent facilities, and offer a range of PhD/MPhil programmes, research projects and studentships throughout the year. PhD’s provide an opportunity to become an expert in a field you are passionate about, opening doors to prestigious careers in academia, or to research positions across industry and public service. PhD opportunities are regularly posted on our website, please check this for current opportunities.
Degree Apprenticeships These specialist courses are co-designed with employers to ensure they’re providing the skills that industries are looking for. Students are employed and divide their time between the workplace and study.
PG Cert and PG Dip awards are qualifications you can achieve by studying fewer modules at master’s level. MRes degrees also have a taught component, but the majority of your time will be spent undertaking independent research.

DEGREE APPRENTICESHIPS Higher and degree apprenticeships offer the best of both worlds combining university study and workplace learning. Northumbria University is a leading degree apprenticeship training provider and was one of the first UK universities to offer government-supported degree apprenticeships. To take part in a Degree Apprenticeship you require agreement from your employer, or in some instances you will be applying for a new job with an apprenticeship as part of that employment. The first step in the application process is the University receiving an employer application form, indicating that they are willing to support you throughout the programme at the University.
If you would like further support with the discussion with your manager or employer about apprenticeships or your wider training and development, please contact our Sales and Business Development team by email at degree.apprenticeships@ northumbria.ac.uk or complete the form on the website to request a call back. If you have a question relating to an apprenticeship programme or you would like to talk further about how apprenticeships at Northumbria University work, call 0191 227 3251.
