NMITE is a new model Institute to teach graduates the relevant skills to be sucessful in the workplace when finishing their masters qualification. The new model focuses on team working and project work with real businesses and challenges. It is an accelerated course which is great as a mature student and works on a 9-5 structure with additional support for those needing it around Maths, English and general study skills. I would highly reccommend if you want a different way of learning from the traditional university model.
