Postgraduate Taught
Below you will find a list of the postgraduate taught courses available in our School: Architecture, Archaeology & Palaeoecology, Civil Engineering, Geography and Planning. Selecting the course titles will take you to the Course Finder with full details of course content and structure, entry requirements, fees and the application procedure.
Postgraduate taught courses are usually one year in length (and a minimum of two years if taken part-time). Comprising a number of modules, they are assessed by a combination of coursework, examination and dissertation and lead to the award of a Masters qualification.
Postgraduate Certificates and Diplomas allow you to specialise at Masters-level without the dissertation. They can allow you to progress further and faster in your chosen sector or open the door to a new career path.
