The cost of studying at University of Salford varies largely depending on the type of university and the degree chosen. More often than not, humanities, arts, and education courses are less expensive than degrees in medical, engineering, or management. Furthermore, students who choose to study at the postgraduate level typically pay higher tuition fees, which again vary depending on the programme chosen.

Most universities provide scholarships or financial aid to students in order to help them offset their tuition costs. Students should be aware that additional course fees and incidental expenses may not be included in tuition. On average, international students can expect to pay £16,380 annually, to study in University of Salford.

Graduates from this programme will find professional opportunities in games design and development, XR development, instructional design and software engineering. Graduates will have access to a wide spectrum of roles in the public and corporate sectors, all of which are searching for individuals with specialised knowledge and skills on this rapidly evolving field. As the adoption of gaming and XR technologies continue to increase, professionals with the creative and technical skills on this type of development will be in high demand in sectors including but not limited to retail and fashion, healthcare, workforce training and real estate. Entrepreneurial endeavor is also a potential avenue for graduates, who will be supported to start start-ups and new business.
