Online and off-campus postgraduate courses

Online and off-campus courses give you the flexibility to study when and where it suits you, without having to attend lectures or tutorials.

When studying online or off-campus you still benefit from access to lecturers and tutors with expert knowledge. Like on-campus students, you study during set semesters or trimesters and submit assignments by deadlines. You also graduate with the same degree and qualifications as on-campus students.
