Conversion courses are intensive postgraduate programmes that allow individuals to pursue a career that their undergraduate degree or professional career has not prepared them for.
By taking a postgraduate conversion course students will be able to transfer their skills to a new field.
Many students choose an undergraduate degree based on their personal strengths and interests, rather than having a specific career in mind. While a conversion course normally implies a degree that will prepare for a specific career path, many courses could be considered ‘conversion’ in that student will be taking up a new area of study that does not relate closely to their undergraduate degree.
