The online student learning experience

Connecting with the curriculum

In terms of our commitment to student success, we make no distinction between our campus-based and online degree courses. Our distance learning courses are designed to immerse you in the material using video and other interactive elements to make you feel like you’re in the classroom.

Like our campus-based students, you will benefit from the expertise of our award-winning lecture and research staff, as well as our Student Liaison and Technical Support teams, who are dedicated to helping you fulfil your learning objectives.

A personal approach

Whilst all our online courses follow a set curriculum, there are plenty of opportunities to follow particular interests or career-oriented paths through particular projects and specialisms. Our lecturers will work with you to identify your strengths and passions to produce a programme that works for you, giving you all the support and encouragement you need.

Study that suits you

Distance learning gives you complete flexibility to study on your terms. As long as you commit to completing the set modules by the deadline, you can arrange your studies to fit your schedule. By studying online you can fulfil your learning potential and your hopes for a better career without affecting your existing work and family commitments.

Online programmes take around 12.5 hours per week to complete, with no requirement to set foot on campus. You are welcome to attend the campus for the graduation ceremony, but this is not essential.

See for yourself

We offer Virtual Open Days so you can hear all about our online courses directly from our programme directors.
