Overview

At University of the West of Scotland, they understand how important it is for working professionals to keep learning in today's constantly changing world. That's why we've created a flexible postgraduate course in Professional Practice.

This course has three levels of award for you to choose from: a Postgraduate Certificate, a Postgraduate Diploma, and a Professional Master's degree (MProf). It's designed so that different kinds of professionals can shape their learning to fit their own goals.

Key Features

For the first time, learners can choose specific classes from across a wide range of options offered by all four schools at UWS. This means each person can create their own set of classes that fit their needs perfectly, and these will be part of the postgraduate qualification they earn.

Although learners have access to the wider postgraduate provision, through working with their personal academic advisor and the core modules they will make informed decisions around what their learning journey will look like.

This personalised approach ensures that each learner's unique needs are recognised, supported, and integrated into the qualification they receive.
