The tutors are great, they made everything easier for me and it became possible to be where I am right now. As for the facilities, they are the best I've seen. I went to the second floor of the library recently with all of the computers and it’s absolutely astonishing to me. I thought, it’s really worth studying here. It’s so impressive and I’m thankful to get to study in Coventry every day.

By choosing to study the Business IPM, you will develop your academic language skills through up to three intense language modules, depending on your IELTS entry level. You will then study graduate research skills and subject-specialist modules. These modules will provide a strong framework for you to continue your studies to a master's degree.
We regularly review our course content, to make it relevant and current for the benefit of our students. For these reasons, course modules may be updated.
This International Pre-Master's will be delivered by CU, part of the Coventry University Group, for and on behalf of Coventry University. You will be taught using various approaches, which may include lessons and individual and group tutorials. You will also have self-study materials to follow outside of the classroom.
You will be assessed on academic language and skills for the International Pre-Master's study route through a combination of continuous, formative and final assessments.
