Program Overview

A postgraduate pathway is a single course comprising two stages of study; Pre-Master’s and Master’s. When you successfully complete the full pathway you will be awarded a Master’s degree from BCUIC.

Advantage of BCUIC Postgraduate Pathway

The postgraduate pathway is designed for students from a variety of backgrounds who:

  • Require additional English language training
  • Come from a different academic environment to that of the UK
  • Have been away from studies for a period of time
  • Are looking to fine-tune skills already gained during undergraduate studies, employment or both

If you fall into any of the above categories, choosing the postgraduate pathway at BCUIC is the right decision.

The Pre-Master’s pathway will prepare you for future postgraduate studies by giving you confidence and expertise in areas relevant to your taught Master’s degree. You will:

  • Develop your fundamental knowledge and understanding of the basic principles relevant to your chosen degree
  • Develop basic numerical techniques, research methodologies and ICT, presentation and communication skills
  • Gain a competent set of transferable skills that will help you in your academic studies and future career, and enable you to make informed decisions
  • Attain the necessary level of language competence specific to your chosen field of study.

Pre-Master's (Stage 1)

The Pre-Master’s course is Stage 1 of the postgraduate pathway, it has been designed to prepare students who have not qualified for direct entry to BCUIC’s Master’s degrees, for postgraduate level studies.

Undertaking a Pre-Master’s course will provide you with the time to adjust to the rigorous research and independent study requirements of postgraduate studies and prepare you to get the most out of your postgraduate study at BCUIC.

Master's (Stage 2)

The Master’s (Stage 2) offers students the chance to build on what they have learned during the Pre-Master’s and extend their professional understanding about their relevant area of study. A taught Master’s degree usually consists of a series of specialist modules in structured class, seminar or tutorial formats. A research thesis component may be included, but is much shorter than what is required for a Master’s degree by research. However, most taught masters’ degrees will have a final major project or dissertation component. The Master’s (Stage 2) is delivered by BCUIC.

MA Fashion Communication

MA Fashion Communication aims to give you the knowledge, skills and experience to launch your career in the fashion and beauty industry.

You will choose one of 3 areas to specialise in: MA Fashion Communication: Marketing, MA Fashion Communication: Cosmetics Branding and Marketing and MA Fashion Communication: Styling and Creative Direction.

Each specialism has specialism specific seminars within shared modules that allow you to focus your research and outputs on your chosen area and collaborate with students from across MA Fashion Communication.
