Apply now for a Master's this September

Students should do a master’s because I feel like it's just another opportunity to learn even more and to go deeper into your area of interest.

The masters set me up for getting a higher level job after graduation, mainly due to modules that I wouldn't have otherwise learnt and their really good employability skills.

Most of the time when you go to the job market, they will always want to see what you've done, when it comes to academic education.

Being able to make yourself stand out from the crowd by not only having your bachelor's, you've also got a master's.

You've demonstrated that deeper level of learning.

You become a subject expert in your field.

You've proven that you can project manage on your own.

You've gone the extra mile.

The first time I came into the University of Portsmouth, it gave me a feeling like I was already in the industry.

I get a chance to meet mentors.

I get a chance to meet professionals and and I get a chance to learn a lot and the university itself offers a lot of opportunities for students to work on themselves and also improve themselves professionally and socially.

Since I struggle with dyslexia and dyspraxia, the University of Portsmouth can offer you so much support not just in dyslexia but with other disabilities as well.

I've received support from my course leader, from my tutors, and any question that I have has always been answered.

I really truly believe that doing a master's qualification has enabled me to have the job that I actually wanted and to get as far as I have done.

If you'd like to find out more about postgraduate study, you can come along to one of our open evenings.

There's a wealth of information on our website.
