Fees for postgraduate taught courses
Paying for your studies is simple. We charge an annual tuition fee, covering the cost of your tuition, examinations, access to IT facilities and the library. It also includes your membership with the Guild of Students. You’ll pay your fees at the start of your programme.
How much does it cost?
Tuition fees vary depending on the course you choose and whether you are a home (UK/Ireland) or international (and EU) student.
Find your course
The annual tuition fee is set for a 12-month session, which usually runs from October to the end of September the following year.
When a programme begins and/or ends mid-session, fees are normally charged on a pro-rata basis according to the number of months studied within a session.
Details of the postgraduate tuition fees can be found on each course page.
How to pay your tuition fees
At Birmingham we recognise that students need flexibility when paying fees. We provide a range of payment options to suit everyone. The fee can either be paid in full or spread over manageable instalments by Direct Debit. You can find out more about paying your fees here.

Other costs and fees
Depending on your subject, there may also be additional costs associated with field trips, travel and activities off-campus. You will also need to meet the costs of printing your Masters dissertation to the University's requirements.
In addition to paying your tuition fees you will also need to plan how you will meet your living costs while undertaking your studies.
