Visit our campus Open Day

On Saturday 25 November 2023 you can come to campus to meet our postgraduate staff and students. Our academics will be available to discuss the programmes you're interested in, including modules, course structure and suitability in relation to your previous experience. 

Our student ambassadors will also share their personal experience of being a postgraduate with you. As they are all current students, our ambassadors are some of the best people to talk to and hear why they decided that Birmingham was the best place for them and their studies.
