Our vision is to inspire today’s brightest postgraduates to make a major impact on global society, and to become the leaders of tomorrow in whatever field they pursue. That’s why we work to provide our postgraduates with the best possible teaching, research facilities and support services to ensure that they reach the peak of their potential. Being a Birmingham postgraduate means working and developing alongside world-leading academics, with outstanding training and development opportunities at your fingertips. A postgraduate degree from Birmingham is therefore much more than a continuation from your previous studies: it’s a real investment in your future.

What’s more, our efforts and investment in postgraduate talent have tangible results. Whilst our taught postgraduates successfully broaden their subject knowledge and gain the transferable skills that give them an academic and professional edge, our postgraduate researchers continue to break new ground and produce research with local, national and international benefits. From cancer research to pioneering the development of new fuels, our postgraduates’ expertise continues to address key challenges facing the modern-day world. As a result, both our taught and research postgraduates are highly sought-after by some of the world’s most prestigious employers.

A £9 billion regeneration programme has reshaped the city into a confident, modern commercial and retail centre.
