Pre-sessional English Language Programme (PREP)
World Englishes studies the many forms English takes as it is used, adapted and reshaped by different speech communities. Work here covers pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary and attitudes to variation, alongside questions of identity, power and standardisation. Graduates often go into language teaching, publishing, editing, research and communication roles.
MSc Islamic Financial Technology (FinTech) and Artificial Intelligence
Finance concerns how money is raised, invested and managed, and how risk and return are priced over time. Topics run from corporate funding decisions and valuation through to markets, portfolios and financial instruments. Graduates often work in corporate finance, banking, investment and asset management, risk analysis and financial planning.
MSc Artificial Intelligence Engineering
Artificial intelligence studies how machines can perceive, learn, reason and act, covering machine learning, neural networks, language and vision, search and planning, and the ethical questions raised along the way. Mathematics and programming underpin the work. Graduates often work in machine learning engineering, research, data roles, robotics and product development.
BSc (Hons) Public Health and Population Studies
Public health concerns the health of populations rather than individual patients: why disease spreads, which conditions cluster where, and what prevention and policy can change. It combines epidemiology, statistics, health promotion and the social causes of illness. Graduates often work in health authorities, non-governmental organisations, research and health programme management.

It draws on sociology, psychology, law and statistics. Graduates often work in criminal justice agencies, community and youth services, research and policy roles, security and the voluntary sector.
PhD (School of Management) Doctorate
Business examines how organisations are created, financed, run and grown, from managing people and money to reading markets and making decisions under uncertainty. Coursework blends analysis with practical judgement. Graduates often move into management, consulting and entrepreneurship, or into specialist roles across finance, operations and marketing.
MSc Sustainable Development
Sustainable development studies how human needs — energy, food, housing, work — can be met without exhausting the systems everyone depends on. It draws on economics, environmental science, governance and social equity, and asks who bears the cost of each choice. Graduates often work in development organisations, environmental programmes, policy analysis and corporate responsibility.
MSc Renewable and Sustainable Energy
Sustainability studies looks at the relationship between human activity and the natural systems that support it — climate, water, land and biodiversity — and at how organisations and communities respond. The approach is deliberately interdisciplinary, mixing science with policy and ethics. Graduates often work in environmental consulting, corporate sustainability, advocacy and public-sector programmes.
MSc Project Planning and Management
This field covers how complex undertakings get planned, budgeted, staffed and delivered on time, from construction schemes to conferences and festivals. The work involves scheduling, risk assessment, supplier coordination and keeping everyone aligned when plans change. Graduates often work in project offices, agencies, venues and operations teams across many industries.
MSc Pharmaceutical Technology and Medicines Control
Pharmaceutical sciences covers how medicines are discovered, formulated, tested and controlled: the chemistry of drug molecules, how the body absorbs and clears them, and what makes a dose safe and stable. Laboratory work and analysis run throughout. Graduates often work in drug development, formulation, quality control, regulatory affairs and research.
MSc / PGDip / PGCert Construction and Project Management

Graduates often work in design consultancies, construction, transport, and water or environmental engineering.
MSc Medical Bioscience
Biology is the study of living things, from molecules and cells to organisms, populations and whole ecosystems. Laboratory and field methods sit alongside genetics, physiology, evolution and ecology. Graduates often move into research and laboratory work, healthcare and pharmaceutical sectors, conservation and environmental roles, education and science communication.
MSc Management
Business administration concentrates on running an organisation as a whole: coordinating people, budgets, operations and strategy so that separate departments work in step. Attention falls on decisions that cut across functions rather than on a narrow specialism. Graduates often move into general management, operations, consulting, and planning or administrative roles across sectors.
MSc Logistics, Data Analytics and Supply Chain Management
Data science turns large and messy datasets into something useful, combining statistics, programming and machine learning with the judgement to ask sensible questions.
