Postgraduate study in Bristol

The University of Bristol ranks within the top ten universities in the UK and offers highly regarded further study options in subjects including maths, geography and philosophy. It is also the second best place to study engineering at postgraduate level in the UK. Graduates of the University of the West of England are particularly employable thanks to its high scoring vocational courses such as nursing and midwifery.

Finding a job after postgraduate study in Bristol

Built around the banks of the river Avon, the city of Bristol is brimming with culture and is the seventh most popular destination for international tourists in the UK.

Bristol is known as a hub for aeronautical engineering and research with a number of major aviation companies, including BAE Systems, Airbus and Rolls-Royce, based in the city. These recruit graduates on an ongoing basis.

The south west is also a richly creative region: many independent film and production companies are based in Bristol. Graduate opportunities too may be found with media centres across the city, as well as with financial services firms such as AXA.
