If you register to study on a 'part-time intermittent study' basis you will pay the academic tuition fees on a course-by-course basis, rather than paying for the entire programme at the outset. Students studying over a number of years should be advised that tuition fees increase each year. As fees change each year, your total cost will depend on the length of time taken to complete your programme.
The cost for courses on this programme is the same for all students, whether based in the UK, the European Union, or elsewhere.
For reference, the Masters programme is equivalent to 180 credits: three 20-credit compulsory courses, three 20-credit option courses, and the Dissertation (60 credits).
Scholarships and funding
Scholarship opportunities are subject to change each year. Therefore, students are encouraged to seek out funding opportunities from the University and external funding bodies.
