INTRODUCTION TAUGHT PROGRAMMES
Taught programmes
A taught postgraduate degree gives you the opportunity to expand on your undergraduate interests or branch out into a completely different field.
It can help you specialise in a particular area, leading to further study at doctorate level, or many choose to study for a taught postgraduate qualification as a way of improving career prospects.
What we offer Most taught programmes at Bristol lead to a master’s qualification (eg MA, MSc, MRes, MEd, LLM), which combines taught units with a research project. These programmes typically last one year full-time or two years part-time. In some subject areas, you will be able to study for a postgraduate diploma or certificate. Several of our programmes provide flexible unit choices within the curriculum, opening up a range of topics and giving you a broad view of your subject.
A stimulating environment With over 4,000 taught postgraduate students from more than 100 countries, Bristol offers you a vibrant atmosphere in which to learn, build networks and discover your full potential. Our success in the Research Excellence Framework demonstrates the quality of cutting-edge research at Bristol, meaning our teaching staff can share knowledge and experience from the forefront of their subject areas.

Professional development Many of our taught programmes are designed for experienced professionals to support career development. These include an MSc in Teaching and Learning for Health Professionals, a range of MSc Education options for teachers in all curriculum areas and settings, and the MSc in Strategy, Change and Leadership, which will be of interest to business leaders. These programmes often provide flexible part-time study options, which means you can gain a qualification while continuing in full-time employment.
