A postgraduate qualification can provide you with the skills and knowledge to gain a promotion, enhance your effectiveness in your current role, help you change careers or launch your own enterprise. And on average a masters degree can boost your career earnings by more than £200,000.*

Whatever direction you are looking to take your career in a postgraduate qualification in law can help. Kingston offers a range of full-time and part-time courses in both general and specialist areas of law.
