Programme structure

Postgraduate Certificate in OR

 

Postgraduate Diploma in OR

Students that wish to proceed to the Postgraduate Diploma need to be in appropriate employment. Your employment should require some analysis of business situations, in the private or public sector. Samples of your work will form the basis of reflection and learning projects, guided by a personal mentor.

MSc in OR

Students who complete the Diploma and gain sufficient marks to proceed to the MSc will be expected to undertake a project. The project will be integrated with your employment. The final decision as to what "appropriate employment" is remains with the University of Strathclyde. You will have individual personal mentoring to guide you in reflection and learning.
