Why Choose NIE Modular Graduate Courses
At NIE, we offer a vast and diverse collection of Master’s level courses to provide opportunities as well as encouragement for individuals to strive towards knowledge acquisition, skills mastery and lifelong learning.
While formal recognition of postgraduate education in the form of a Master’s or PhD degree may appeal to some, the majority of working adults may prefer learning through standalone courses.
What's Next for You
Every semester, NIE offers a range of Master’s level courses. These courses can be taken as standalone courses, subject to vacancies and meeting pre-requisites.
Credits earned can also be transferred to a relevant Master’s programme upon successful admission, subject to prevailing University’s guidelines and approval.
