We apply creativity and passion to a wide-ranging portfolio of innovative postgraduate degrees. Our subjects range from the creative industries, business and social sciences to maritime and sport.
But don’t take our word for it, have a look at what we have to offer here and take your next steps in education in a welcoming and professional environment.
That famous work life balance - support and flexibility is key
Whether you are carrying on with study straight from another course, or are coming back to study after a break, we know that being flexible is going to be key.
We aim to support you with a learning environment that fits around your current commitments, be it work or family. Many of our courses have lectures over a single day, meaning you can timetable other commitments around your course sessions.
We have great teams in place to help you tune or rediscover your academic skills, or support you if you need that extra helping hand.
As well as supporting your academic growth, we also think that your time with us should be fun and exciting. We want you to invest in your own abilities and give you the space to allow your passion to come forward and your ideas come to life.

Make use of strong links with industry
For us it’s all about employment and getting you work-ready. If you are already on your career path and need to fine tune your skills to progress, or want a career change and need a foot in the door, our courses offer you options.
Our staff are experts in their fields and many are still practising. This knowledge, combined with guest speakers, industry connections to tap into, live briefs, case studies and tailored work-based projects will offer you that vital work and study connection.
Some of our courses are even accredited by various professional organisations, offering you the opportunity to study for additional accreditation alongside your main course.
You’ll have everything you need - first-class facilities
As a student at Solent, your course will give you access to the latest industry-standard equipment and facilities, across all subject areas. This will increase your skills, knowledge and experience, enhancing your CV and preparing you for your dream job. And if you need a break from studying to relax with your friends, we have our own on campus 3D cinema and have several coffee shops on site.
Research-informed teaching
We have an active, fast-growing research community at Solent University, and our focus is on the kind of practical, applied research that meets the needs of industry and commerce.
Our dedicated Solent Learning and Teaching Institute supports students, lecturers and researchers alike, encouraging lecturers to incorporate their research into everyday teaching and creating embedded research experiences for learners.
