After completing your UK master’s, you can apply for the Graduate Visa, which allows you to work in the UK for up to 2 years (18 months for those graduating after January 2027). If you secure a skilled job offer, you could switch to a Skilled Worker Visa for a longer stay. If health or innovation roles interest you, there are special visas for those fields as well.
