Postgraduate conversion courses
Are you wanting to change your career path but studied something at undergraduate degree level which doesn't suit the direction you want your career to go in?
Our postgraduate conversion courses offer an opportunity for you seeking to pivot into something new.
What is a postgraduate conversion course?
A conversion course is like a crash course that helps graduates dive into a new subject or career path. Usually offered at the master's level, these programmes focus more on hands-on training rather than long research papers. They're perfect for undergraduates who want to switch careers without starting from scratch. For example, there's the Global MBA, or the MSc 3D Design for Virtual Environments or there is the option to change into a career in marketing with the MSc Marketing (one year and with prof practice).
These courses offer different study options to fit various career goals and backgrounds.
Progress to a career in 3D design, virtual environments, architectural visualisation, computer games or visual effects. Develop advanced, postgraduate-level expertise in 3D modelling, lighting, rendering, animation and video production.
Learn about global issues in marketing and digital media, branding, consumer behaviour and communications. Develop an ethical approach to marketing decision making. Choose to progress to a career in social media, marketing or digital marketing.
Join the increasingly important world of risk studying data acquisition, organisational risk analysis and impact-assessing insight. Progress to a career in a wide range of industries with employers such as Turner & Townsend and Barclays.
