What are the differences between doing an undergraduate Master’s pathway compared to the BSc (Hons) pathway?

There are a number of potential differences when undertaking an undergraduate Master’s at 91��Ƭ:

Over four years you will undertake an additional number of, and a higher level of credits to fulfil the requirements of the award. There is therefore a greater commitment to study.
The undergraduate master’s should be considered as a programme across the academic year – don’t worry though you will still get time for holidays and breaks and to work. We can tell you more about this at our open days or you can contact the admissions team.
The undergraduate masters is designed to enhance your depth and breadth of knowledge and skills in subjects such as leadership, service improvement, research and public health, meaning you will graduate with academic abilities and experience at a higher level than you would with a BSc (Hons).
Doing an undergraduate master’s offers you an alternative model to the traditional route of a four-year BSc degree followed by an additional one or two years to gain a master’s level qualification.
An undergraduate master’s may open alternative career routes in research, academia, and health both nationally and globally.

Don’t forget, you are not obliged to pursue the undergraduate Master’s route because there is the opportunity to follow a BSc (Hons) pathway instead at the end of Year Two of your degree.

* A postgraduate pre-registration master's degree is a two-year course and a route to changing career. Those embarking on a postgraduate pre-registration master's degree will already have a relevant undergraduate degree and it will an enable to you retrain as a HCPC registered (or equivalent) health professional.
