Why Study in the United Kingdom?
UK universities provide internationally recognized qualifications of the highest standard. They also offer more opportunities than ever before. There are currently over 55,000 postgraduate taught courses and research opportunities to choose from on the Prospects database alone.
The quality of UK degrees is one reason why so many people come to the UK to study. Another is value for money. Unlike equivalent programs in the United States or Australia, most UK Masters programs can be completed in one year.
A major advantage of studying in the UK is the opportunity to perfect your knowledge of the English language - one of the most important skills in the international business world. If you are from outside the EU, especially if you are studying a commercial subject, you may well appreciate the opportunity to observe at first hand the operation of the European market.
