Continue your studies at Brighton

If you’re graduating from your undergraduate degree with us this summer, we’d love to welcome you back in September for a postgraduate degree!

Scholarships for Brighton grads

We’ve created scholarships worth up to £2,500 especially for University of Brighton graduates who progress on to postgraduate study with us.

Change direction

You could use a postgraduate degree to change career path – not every programme requires you to have studied the subject before. We offer conversion courses in law, teaching, physiotherapy, podiatry, occupational therapy, social work and journalism.

Get ahead in your career

A masters is an opportunity to build on your knowledge and become an expert in your discipline; you’re also more likely to be in high-skilled employment. 79% of working-age postgraduates are in high-skilled employment, compared with 66% of working-age graduates (source: gov.uk).

Postgraduates earn on average 18% more than first degree holders, six months after graduation.

Postgraduate virtual open events

We're running a postgraduate virtual open events on Tuesday 2 March, 11am–1pm.

It's a great chance for you to find out more about continuing your studies, get tips on specific topics and ask any questions you have.

Book your place

You can find out about the University of Brighton scholarships and discounts available to you as a future graduate, as well as government loans.

Postgraduate tutors will be on hand to answer all your questions about your course, as well as current masters students.

The events take place on Unibuddy with most sessions being text-based Q&As. You can join the virtual event at any point; jump in on the discussion or message academics, staff or students directly.

Start your masters this September

We know it’s been a challenging year for our students and that COVID-19 might also be disrupting your plans after graduation.

We want to support you as much as we can, so we’re offering scholarships especially for our graduates who want to continue their studies with us.

The alumni postgraduate scholarship is available to graduates of the University of Brighton (and its predecessor institutions), and is equivalent to a 20% discount on tuition fees, up to a maximum of £2,500.

You could also benefit from:

  • Government postgraduate loans of up to £11,570.
  • PGCE, NHS and social work bursaries.
  • Flexibly study options, including opportunities to study individual modules and part-time.

Find your course
During my first year at Brighton I realised that I wanted to go into teaching, so I attended an open day where the tutors advised me on the best options and courses available to help me fulfil my career goals. From their advice I chose Chemistry (Secondary) PGCE.

The tutors on this course have a lot of experience, and are extremely supportive and make a lot of effort to understand each and everyone’s needs.

Further study week - 15 to 19 February

Whether you've decided it's time to spread your wings and leave Brighton, or you'd like to continue your studies with us, we can help you make sense of postgraduate study.

The University of Brighton careers and employability team is holding a week-long online series of talks, practical guidance, and Q&A’s to help you understand your options for continuing to study after graduation.

Visit our further study week hub for more information.
