Top Up Courses

What is a Top-up Degree?

A Top-up degree is equal to the final year of an undergraduate degree. Top up degrees are aimed at students who have already completed high-level qualifications, and want to upgrade their qualification to the level of a full-time Bachelor degree. It is usually a one-year course and enables students develop their skills, knowledge and understanding in a specific field while also obtaining an internationally-recognised qualification.

If you have successfully completed an HND or Foundation degree, a top-up degree can be a brilliant way to boost your existing qualifications and open up new career prospects. With only one year of study, you have an opportunity to graduate with a full honours degree. Although an HND or a Foundation degree is an outstanding qualification in itself, depending on your career aims, you may consider studying a further more for a BA/BSc degree to experience further possibilities now or in the future.

Topping-up your qualification with a relevant top up course will help improve your skills in:

  • Critical thinking
  • Discussion and debate
  • Time management
  • Planning and preparing
  • Researching
  • Strategic management
