University of Wolverhampton

The University of Wolverhampton prides itself on being a career-focused university, with extensive business links across a wide range of industries. It has a 98% employability rating for its postgraduate students and offers over 150 postgraduate qualifications. Located in the heart of England, Wolverhampton is within easy reach of the rest of the UK, less than 20 minutes to Birmingham with London, Manchester and Liverpool in easy reach on the train and bus. The Shropshire countryside is close by for idyllic views, a perfect place to retreat to when the busy city life gets too much. Along with a site in the centre of Wolverhampton, there are also campuses located in Telford and Walsall.

We've been providing students with the opportunities presented by a first-class education for over 180 years. With over 200 postgraduate programmes to choose from delivered across our four facilities, we offer teaching informed by world-leading research, strong business links and state of the art facilities.

There are 18 different schools within the following four faculties:

• Arts
• Education, Health and Wellbeing
• Science and Engineering
• Social Sciences

The University offers a wide range of taught and research degrees at postgraduate level and boasts a number of research institutes and research centres that work closely alongside industry experts.
