A postgraduate qualification provides better employability prospects, with an above-average 89% employment rate amongst the working age population. Those with a postgraduate qualification have increased earning potential of, on average, £8,000 p.a. more than graduates, and £17,000 more than non-graduates*.
Retrain or gain a promotion
The boost a postgraduate course can offer you professionally is huge, giving you the opportunity to change direction in your career or increase the chances of securing a future promotion.
Fulfil your ambitions
It isn’t solely your professional life that can benefit from a postgraduate qualification. You may want to pursue your passion for a subject, become recognised as an expert in your field, or fulfil a lifelong dream of studying beyond your undergraduate degree.
Studying for an MBA can help you advance up the career ladder, create new networks of contacts and open doors you may not have previously considered.
