University of LeedsA qualification from the University of Leeds counts: our graduates are highly valued by employers. When you complete your degree programme, you will also become part of a network of highly employable graduates.
The Professional Studies BA has the relevance and breadth that many employers look for when recruiting graduates. Interdisciplinary study is highly valued by employers because of the skills that it develops in problem-solving, adaptability and analytical thinking. The degree focuses on key issues and professional practice to ensure that your learning is relevant and introduces you to how and why experts from different disciplines arrive at their positions.
Graduates from Professional Studies have gained graduate positions in the public and voluntary sector (becoming Business Managers, Housing Officers, Support Work Managers), the NHS, the Care Quality Commission, and in the Home Office and Civil Service. Some have undertaken postgraduate qualifications to become social workers, educators, and in staff development. Others are now undertaking research in human rights, international business and intercultural understanding.
