Change careers with a conversion course
Get the future you want
Your first degree doesn't have to define your future.
A conversion course can help you develop expertise in a new field, preparing you for a different career path without having to start again from scratch.
Whether you're looking to enter a new profession, build specialist knowledge or explore a new interest, a conversion course could help you get there.
What is a conversion course?
A conversion course is a postgraduate qualification designed for graduates whose first degree is in a different subject.
It helps you develop the subject-specific knowledge and practical experience needed to study, work or progress in an area that's new to you without completing a second undergraduate degree.
From business and marketing to psychology, education and data science, conversion courses offer a route into a wide range of subject areas and professions.
Is a conversion course right for you?
You might be:
- interested in a career that doesn't relate to your first degree
- looking to develop specialist skills
- exploring a new industry
- planning your next career move.
Many professions welcome graduates from a wide range of academic backgrounds. A conversion course can help bridge the gap between where you are now and where you want to be.
