Your Pathways

For online learning, at postgraduate level you can study the Distance Learning Pre-Master’s Programme (DL PMP).

The DL PMP is designed for those students who do not qualify for direct entry to a postgraduate degree at the University of Dundee. This could be because of the grades achieved in your undergraduate degree; your current qualifications are not equivalent to a UK undergraduate degree or if you want to improve your academic and English language skills.

Our DL PMP will equip you with the advanced skills you need to complete your postgraduate study at the University of Dundee. You can study this over 15 weeks before progressing to your chosen master’s degree course.
