Postgraduate Taught Global Update as of December 2024

Our unique Pulse trackers and Share of Search data provide insights on thousands of prospective international students interested in Global Masters study opportunities. As of December 2024, we’re seeing that:

• Interest in the USA continues to fall from Asian, African and (most notably) North American audiences.
  
  
• Most audiences see a slight shift away from Online study and towards Blended. European audiences, however, see the opposite.
  
  
• Spring 2025 is still the most popular entry point for most destinations but interest in Autumn 2025 is catching up. More than half of the audiences interested in French study are now considering the 2025/26 academic year.
  
  
• Arts & Humanities specialisms continue to see large growth from audiences interested in the US. Specialism interests fluctuate in the Netherlands with Molecular Biology and Nutrition seeing the largest growth.
