Graduate Diplomas for international students

We offer two Graduate Diploma courses that prepare international students for studying at postgraduate level at the University of Liverpool:

Graduate Diploma course structure

Our Graduate Diploma courses are made up of three elements:

  • Core academic skills modules
    As one of our diploma students, you will develop advanced academic skills including research, essay writing, presentation and analysis.
  • Subject modules
    You will develop knowledge of your chosen area of study so that you have the advanced level of understanding. You will then focus on the particular topics and skills needed to excel in your postgraduate degree course at the University of Liverpool.
  • Student tutorials
    You will be assigned a Learning Support Tutor who will work with you throughout your academic course at the college, and support you in achieving your study goals. Our graduate students find that through these regular meetings their tutors offer valuable advice that helps develop both study skills and knowledge that ensures they receive the best possible education. Graduate Diploma students benefit from having all modules taught with their progression to the University of Liverpool in mind. Graduate students can enjoy the confidence that the course is tailored to meet their exact needs.

English Language tuition is also available for students that do not meet required English levels.

Enhanced University Preparation

Liverpool International College is pleased to announce the addition of a new Graduate Diploma course for September 2011! The Enhanced University Preparation course is made up of three terms , the first of which introduces you to key topics, useful learning tools and UK culture, before continuing with the regular two-term Graduate Diploma course in the second and third terms. These extra study skills will support your success throughout the duration of your course and when you finally progress to your postgraduate course at the University of Liverpool.

Provided that our students successfully complete the Graduate Diploma at the required level then their progression to a related University of Liverpool postgraduate degree is guaranteed.
