Postgraduate Open Evening - Wednesday 19 November

A master’s degree can be a great way of continuing your professional development. You can gain new skills and knowledge which will enable you to advance your career. With many of our courses, you can opt to study full-time, part-time or online. Which means you can fit your studies around your work and family commitments.

It’s a significant investment in your future. But research has shown that individuals with a postgraduate degree tend to earn more than individuals with only an undergraduate degree over their working lifetime.

Many of our courses are accredited and approved by leading professional bodies. This enables you to gain industry recognition as well as a degree. Your qualification could count towards registration with a professional organisation. And even let you gain extra qualifications alongside your degree. Helping to boost your career prospects and earning potential.

You may be able to apply for a Postgraduate Master’s Loan from the Government to help with the costs of study. You’ll only need to start repaying the loan when your income is over a certain amount. If you’re a UK student who gained your undergraduate degree with us, you may be eligible for our Alumni Loyalty Discount which entitles you to 20% off your tuition fees.

For UK students we offer an Alumni Loyalty Discount of 20% to UCLan award holders. This discount applies to both postgraduate taught and postgraduate research degrees. 

International students are not eligible for the loyalty discount.

Our postgraduate students are entitled to all our student support offerings, this includes:

• Cost of living support
• Mature student support
• The Pre-school Centre for students with young children.
• Careers and employment support
• Mental health and wellbeing support

Much more support is available and further details can be found in our student support hub.

Postgraduate students can now apply for a loan from the Student Loans Company in the same way as undergraduate students. However, unlike an undergraduate loan, this will be paid directly to you. As a result, it is important to consider your tuition fees and when you need to pay these to the University.
