Opportunities

This Master's degree does not grant access to a PhD. In order to become a qualified teacher, it is necessary to complete the 30-credit AESS teacher training course. The prospects for entering the corporate world are similar to those of the 120-credit Master's degree, though the lack of specialisation and placement may make this more difficult.
