Types of Programmes
We offer two main types of postgraduate programmes—research postgraduate programmes and taught postgraduate programmes. Potential candidates should consider their career goals and study plans to identify the most suitable mode of study.

Research Postgraduate Studies
Research postgraduate programmes focus mainly on research work and require applicants to have good academic background and preferably solid research experience. These programmes provide students with training in research methodologies in a specific discipline and require students to be involved in research projects. Research postgraduate programmes lead to qualifications such as Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) and Master of Philosophy (M.Phil.).

Taught Postgraduate Studies
In contrast, taught postgraduate programmes focus mainly on coursework and may not require students to submit a thesis for graduation. Programme structures and assessment methods vary across programmes and areas of study. Some examples of the resulting qualifications are Master of Arts (M.A.), Master of Business Administration (M.B.A.), Master of Science (M.Sc.), and Postgraduate Diploma (Pg.D.).
