What courses does the University of Greenwich offer and how can I find them?

The University of Greenwich offers more than 200 undergraduate courses and over 150 postgraduate courses, with study options that include on-campus, part-time, online and distance learning. You can find a course through the course search on gre.ac.uk, or by browsing by subject, by school, or through the A–Z listing. The site also has separate entry points for undergraduate, postgraduate, international, apprenticeship and online courses, so the right starting page depends on what you want to study and how.

Course types at a glance

The site describes Greenwich as a place to "belong, learn, be supported, and thrive," and notes it received Gold in the Teaching Excellence Framework (TEF) 2023. It also states that it is the top modern university in London and Kent for graduate prospects — a claim taken from the university's own pages, so treat it as the institution's positioning rather than an independent ranking.

How to find a course on gre.ac.uk

1. Start with the course search. The homepage has a "Find your course" area with a course search box. Enter a subject or course name and review the results.
2. Or browse instead of searching. If you do not have a course name in mind, use the browse options: by subject, by school, or the A–Z listing. Browsing by subject is usually the fastest route when you know the field but not the exact title.
3. Pick the level that matches you. Use the Undergraduate (BA, BSc) entry for first degrees, or the Postgraduate (MA, MSc) entry for master's-level study. Each has its own course list and supporting information.
4. Check the study mode. Postgraduate pages note flexible options including online and part-time study, and there is a separate Greenwich Online section for distance learning degrees. If you need to work alongside study, filter your shortlist by mode early.
5. Read the fees, funding and bursary information. The postgraduate section points to fees, funding and bursaries. The scholarships and bursaries page mentions, among others, a £4,000 Commuter Bursary and an International Scholarships Award. Eligibility conditions apply, so check them against your own situation rather than assuming you qualify.
6. Confirm before you commit. Course pages and entry requirements can change between cycles. Verify the specific course, start date, mode and fees on the current page, or ask via the site's AskUoG! enquiry route.

Choosing between the entry points

• Undergraduate — use this if you are applying for a first degree and want the BA/BSc course list.
• Postgraduate — use this for MA/MSc study, especially if you need part-time or online flexibility.
• International — use this if you are applying from outside the UK and want course options plus the support the university describes for international students.
• Apprenticeship degrees — use this if you want to combine study with practical training in a workplace.
• Greenwich Online — use this if you want a recognised UK degree delivered by distance learning.

Seeing the university before deciding

The site lists in-person Open Days, including one on 17 October, described as an opportunity to talk to tutors and explore courses, campuses, facilities, accommodation and student support services. A separate Open Day on 15 October is also listed. Booking is required through the site. If you cannot attend, the course pages and enquiry route are the practical alternative.

One caveat worth keeping in mind: the homepage also promotes "priority clearing," which is tied to specific application periods. If you are reading this outside a clearing window, check the current admissions pages rather than relying on that prompt.
