The Postgraduate Diploma in Applied Management is a Level 8 programme of 120 credits at Levels 7 and 8, with at least 75 credits at Level 8, which enables those who have completed a bachelor degree in business or similar to achieve a postgraduate level qualification in the applied management area.

Those who wish to progress from the PGDipApM to the MAPM will complete eight courses (120 credits) at Level 8.

The programme can be completed in one year full-time or up to four years part-time, depending on your previous study and experience, and specific course preferences. It can act as an eligibility point into the masters degree for those who don’t initially meet the possible requirement, and need to demonstrate their ability to study at a postgraduate level. Alternatively, if you initially enrolled in the masters degree and are not in a position to complete it, you can transfer any applicable courses to the postgraduate diploma for the purposes of qualification completion.
