Courses at London Met

Undergraduate

An undergraduate course (known as a bachelor's degree) is usually the first degree students apply for and lasts for three years.

You graduate with a Bachelor of Arts (BA), Sciences (BSc) or Education (BEd) depending on your choice of topic.

The basic building block of the degree is a module. Each module is worth 30 credits and an honours degree is awarded to students who achieve 360 credits.

You will be studying some core modules, which are compulsory parts of the course, and some optional modules, which you can choose according to your own interests.

Postgraduate

Postgraduate degrees are for students who have already completed an undergraduate degree to a good standard or have enough experience in the relevant field.

A master's is usually taught like an undergraduate degree and takes one or two years. It is more challenging than a bachelor's and demands considerable independent thought from students.

A doctorate (PhD) is the most demanding academic qualification, and usually involves creating a book-length publishable piece of original research in its field.

We offer a wide range of MA, MSc, MPhil and PhD programmes. Search our course database for taught Masters.

For reseach degrees please contact the research office.

A pre-degree is a one or two semester course at the University which, when completed successfully, will guarantee you a place on the first year of a degree or diploma at London Met.

Access courses are held at our partner colleges. These programmes prepare students for entry into undergraduate degrees by providing knowledge and skills in specific subject areas.
