Exploiting another level on the ladder of learning

Article Abstract:

A postgraduate degree can be very valuable in the UK's competitive employment market, but choosing the most appropriate degree from among the many on offer can be a complex process.

In contrast, a taught postgraduate degree is more structured, with regular tutorials or lectures and a clear progression from one unit to the next.
