Who is this for?

This virtual event is open to everyone, but it’s definitely for you if you:

  • Want to study a postgraduate course at a modern university in a major city: We’re at the heart of the UK’s second-largest city with a population of over 1.1 million people. Birmingham is one of the youngest cities in Europe, with under-25s accounting for 37.4% of its population (West Midlands Growth Company, 2022).
  • Are an international student wanting to study a PhD in the UK: Our international team will be on hand to answer your questions about funding, applications and the process you'll need to follow as an international applicant.
  • Want to study in ultra-modern facilities and learning spaces: We have invested £500 million in our facilities, including a major expansion of our City Centre Campus. Are a friend, family or carer of someone who’s considering a place at university: You’re very welcome to come along and experience the event.

What can I do?

  • Find out more about postgraduate finance: We know that finance and funding options are a key consideration for postgraduate study. At our virtual event, you'll have the chance to attend an informative talk about the ins and outs of funding.
  • Receive application advice: Our experts will be sharing their top tips to submitting a great application or research proposal.
  • Get your questions answered: If you have any additional questions about finance, applications or other aspects of life as postgraduate research student at BCU, you'll have the chance to ask our staff at this virtual event.
