Now is the time for postgraduate study

Make this the year you stop just thinking about postgraduate study and start doing. Want to know why? Read on…

UTS Alumni save 10%

If you have a previous degree from UTS, you can now save 10% on fees for postgraduate UTS courses. Whether you are seeking to accelerate your path to promotion, change careers or expand your horizons, you can enjoy this benefit simply by enrolling in your chosen course.

Now is the time to invest

Historically low interest rates, combined with a growing and transitioning economy, mean right now the best investment you can make is yourself. Your knowledge, your skills and your networks. Position yourself at the vanguard of Australia’s new economy rather than be left behind.

Get a return on investment sooner

According to the Quality Indicators for Learning and Teaching (opens an external site), the median salary for postgraduate coursework graduates in 2020 was $87,400, 35% higher than those with an undergraduate degree. The sooner you do it, the more time you have for it to be paying dividends.

Control your career

The average Australian changes jobs every 3.3 years and will have 5 careers in their lifetime. The ticket to you being in control of this is having the skills, networks and confidence that are the unique hallmarks of postgraduate education.

Choose when and how long you study

Not sure you want to commit to a whole master degree? Do an embedded graduate certificate or diploma, or even just an individual subject as an entrée or to top up your skills. And you can choose how many subjects you do per week to match your workload and other commitments.

Recognition of prior learning

In most programs, you can receive credit for previous related postgraduate and even undergraduate study, freeing you up to focus on learning something new. But you have to have done it in the past decade.

Government fee support

Do you know you can defer paying your postgraduate fees in the same way as your undergraduate tuition fees? FEE HELP (opens an external site) is the government loan initiative that covers Australian postgraduate student fees, where you pay it back according to your income.
