Postgraduate Programmers in the UK
                IF you study as a UK postgraduate student, most of the work you do will be on your own
initiative, which really develops your thinking and research skills.  On taught courses, postgraduate tutors and lecturers provide the framework of the course, but you are encouraged to pursure your own interests.  With postgraduate research programmers, the principal teaching method is original research, completed under academic supervision. 
UK Undergraduate courses are available: 
    Pres-master's courses:  
     Pre-master's courses can last from one term to a complete academic year and cover academic study, cultural instruction and language training.  You may need to take a pre-master's course if your qualification or English language skills don't quite match the standard required for a UK mater's degree.  Many courses will guarantee progression on to a master's course at a particular university.

Postgraduate certificate or diploma(PG Cert/Dip)

    Postgraduate certificates and diplomas are one-year taught postgraduate courses that don't usually involve research.  They're often accepted as professional qualifications, giving you a fantastic head start in your chosen career.

Taught master's (MA,MSc,LLM,Med, etc.)

    Taught master's courses generally last for one year and consist of two elements.  You'll complete a number of modules (attending lectures and seminars, writing essays and taking examinations) and produce a disseration from original research.

Resarach master's (MRes,MPhil)

    On a master's degree by research in the UK, you won't typically attend lectures; instead you'll devote the entire year to research.  Your final mark will be determined by the quality of your dissertation.

Master of Business Administration(MBA)

    An MBA is a specialist business taught master's course that will give you a real step up the managerial ladder.  It's the best-known and most popular postgraduate qualification.

Doctorate (PhD)

     An PhD, also known as doctorate, takes three to four years to complete, during which time you'll be working on a single research project.  In your final year, you'll be asked to present a dissertation of approximately 100,000 words.
