Our courses 
We have a range of postgraduate master’s courses available covering a variety of subject areas, which have been designed to support you throughout your studies, as well as prepare you for your future career.
Funding your studies
There are plenty of funding options available to help you with the cost of your studies. Last year we offered up to £8 million in postgraduate scholarships ranging across all subject areas. Postgraduate government funding is also available for UK/EU students starting eligible master’s programmes with us. The money is paid directly to you, and can be used towards the cost of your tuition fees and/or living expenses. Swansea does offer a lower cost of living compared to other university cities, which means you will have more money left in your pocket at the end of the month.

Whether you want to secure a specific role, boost your career prospects or achieve a higher paid salary position, our courses and team of talented academics will give you the relevant transferable skills needed to help you achieve your career goals. You will have the opportunity to carry out industry-linked research projects and undertake work placements with partner organisations such as Santander, TATA Steel and Fujitsu when studying with us. The Swansea Employability Academy can also help you develop your skills in CV writing, job searching and interview techniques, giving you the best possible chance of success in the employment market.
