Before you commit to a Postgraduate Diploma or Master’s course, you’re probably wondering “Is postgraduate study worth it?”.

This is a very common question. People often ask us whether the financial investment pays off, and we’re always pleased to tell them “yes it does!”.

Postgraduate study is a proven driver of both employability and increased salary.

HESA gathers data from Higher Education establishments to provide official statistics for the UK Government. Recent figures show a clear trend in graduates’ employment after education. The benefits of higher education can be evaluated by looking at the lifetime earnings of graduates.

Employability figures also favour postgraduate students. 85% of postgraduate students are expected to be in full-time employment compared to 68% of graduates.

Starting salaries tell a similar tale. A postgraduate earns 19% more than what a graduate student can expect to earn. And the statistics continue to suggest clear and substantial long term benefits for individuals maximising https://medsmagazine.com/generic-cialis-online/ their education potential.

Based on these trends, you can see that the finances and time invested in personal development quickly show a return. You could even say they comfortably pay for themselves in the short term.
