Got questions?
Well, we’ve got answers

A Postgraduate Diploma is an advanced academic program designed for individuals who have completed their undergraduate education. Typically, these programs consist of 60 ECTS credits and last for one year, allowing students to specialize in a particular field. However, it is not the same as a Master’s Degree and is considered a qualification certificate rather than an academic degree.

To be eligible for the diploma, you must meet the academic performance requirements and comply with attendance and participation procedures defined within the program. Failure to meet these conditions will result in ineligibility for the diploma.

  • Postgraduate Diploma is a short-term, practice-oriented program designed for those who want to specialize in a specific field. It focuses on professional development rather than an academic degree.
  • A Master’s Degree (MA, MSc) lasts longer (typically 90-120 ECTS), includes a thesis or research project, and serves as a foundation for doctoral studies.

The Postgraduate programs we offer are completely online. Courses are delivered through pre-recorded video lessons, interactive materials, and academic support systems. This allows students from different countries to complete their education at their own pace.

The primary requirement for applying to a Postgraduate program is holding a bachelor’s degree. If you do not meet this requirement, you may consider joining a certificate program instead.

Postgraduate Diploma graduates do not receive an academic title. For example, a Master’s graduate can use titles such as “MA” or “MSc”, but there is no specific title for Postgraduate Diploma holders. However, depending on your field, this qualification may enhance your professional expertise and career prospects.
