A conversion course is a postgraduate program designed for students who want to switch to a new field different from their previous studies.

These courses cover the core subjects of an undergraduate degree in the new field, but in a shorter time - usually several months to two years. They are popular for areas like psychology, IT, nursing, law, and education.

Conversion courses combine theory with practical skills, preparing you to start a new career or pursue further study in your chosen area.
