Some use postgraduate study to move up the career ladder, others to change direction and many simply to update their skills or enhance their knowledge. Here are just some of the reasons why a step up to postgraduate study could transform your future.
Get the job you want
An undergraduate degree is undoubtedly a great asset but, on graduation, many students are still not entirely sure what they want to do. Studying for a masters gives you time to think, enables you to dig deeper into your subject area and see exactly what you want from your career.
Postgraduate qualifications make you stand out from the crowd. The confidence, knowledge and transferable skills you gain at masters level prepare you for the world of work and give you the confidence to succeed.
Fast track your career
Many jobs these days require postgraduate study for career progression. The independent learning skills you develop at this level assure employers that you are capable of working at a higher level, challenging the status quo and finding creative solutions to 21st century problems.
A change of direction
Selecting your future career path at the age of 18 can be quite a challenge. That’s why so many people choose postgraduate study to help them change direction. Many courses welcome applicants from other disciplines, focussing on the skills you have gained in your undergraduate degree rather than your knowledge of a particular sector. By learning to use your skills in a different way, you could move into the career you want and make a fresh start.
Great earning potential
When it comes to reaching their career potential, postgraduate students up to the age of 30 typically earn £9,000* more per year than those without a degree. This is double the £4,500* difference between undergraduate degree holders and those without a degree.
And if you want to set up on your own, LJMU is ranked in the top 25 UK universities for graduate business start-ups.
