Postgraduate support

With world-class facilities, industry-leading academics, and a range of student service teams, we are here to support you throughout your journey. And that support doesn't start when you arrive, it starts today.

Academic support

At LJMU, every student has a Personal Tutor or Supervisor to guide and support you throughout your studies. They will often be your first point of contact for any questions or concerns. For more specialised assistance, our Student Advice and Wellbeing team is always ready to help. 

You can also enhance our learning with our exceptional study skills workshops. The workshops cover diverse topics such as statistics and IT skills. 

World-leading experts

Many postgraduate students select LJMU because of our exceptional staff. As world-leading experts in their fields, they are at the forefront of research and innovation.

Their teaching combines practical experience with insights from visiting specialists, equipping you with the knowledge and skills needed for your future career.
