A Pre-Masters is for international students who need to improve their English or develop research, academic writing and seminar skills ahead of a taught master's degree. Pre-Masters programmes in the UK are designed to prepare students fully for studying at postgraduate level.
Courses range from ten weeks to twelve months and provide an essential grounding for successful postgraduate study. A Pre-Masters will greatly increase the English language and study skills required for successful postgraduate study, as well as familiarising international students with UK teaching methods.
