Course summary

The Extended Project Qualification (EPQ) is a valuable way to develop skills that are highly regarded by both universities and employers. By completing an independent project of your choice, you demonstrate commitment, motivation and the ability to sustain research over time. The EPQ allows you to connect your A Level subjects, personal interests and career aspirations, giving real depth and context to your learning. It also develops critical thinking, analysis and communication skills, as well as the ability to manage a project from start to finish. Universities recognise the EPQ as excellent preparation for undergraduate study, with some even offering reduced entry tariffs to applicants who achieve a high grade, particularly if their project relates directly to their chosen degree. Employers value it too, as evidence of creativity, initiative and responsibility. Above all, the EPQ gives you the chance to take control of your learning, explore a subject you care about and enjoy the process of discovery.
