Part-time students
Flexible study
There are many reasons to consider studying part-time -- work commitments, family responsibilities or just a preference for working at a slower pace. It can also be a more affordable way to access higher education.
There are thousands of students studying part-time at Worcester, from short bites of learning to degree and postgraduate qualifications. Our courses are designed to be flexible. If you want to vary the amount of time you spend studying from year to year, or even take a break for a while, you can.
An undergraduate degree normally takes between 4 and 7 years to complete through part-time study. Explore the complete list of part time courses.
Balance work and study
If you want, or need, to work while studying, this route is the ideal way to balance your time. Work that ties in with your qualification can also give you relevant work experience that can help put you ahead when it comes to getting further up the career ladder.
Support for part time students
As a part time student, you will enjoy all the advantages and support of being a full-time student, such as access to academic and sporting facilities, student services and the Careers Advisory Service.
