Postgraduate Publishing studies at Edinburgh Napier University. INDUSTRY APPROVED Publishing degrees (accredited by the Professional Publishers Association and Creative Skillset). MSc Publishing was the first Publishing programme in the UK to be accredited by the Professional Publishers Association (PPA). It is now accredited by Creative Skillset (only one of two courses to hold this award). MSc Magazine Publishing is the only course of its kind in Scotland and is the only publishing course in the UK to be accredited by the PPA. The PPA is the lead body for best practice in training, development and people management for the magazine and business media industry.
A huge congratulations to our MSc Publishing students who graduated yesterday!
All of us here in the programme team wish you every success in your Publishing careers.
Here’s to the class of 2018!
This is a lovely time of year when we have two cohorts of students!
We have our current class of 2017/18, who have just completed their dissertation (and no doubt breathed a huge sigh of relief), and our new class of 2018/19, who are about to join us in September!
For our current students – here are some photos to remind you of the good times.
For our incoming students – be prepared to work hard but, as with any good publishing career, be assured that there will also be many laughs along the way!
We hope you all – current and new – enjoy your time with us!
Copies of Detective McLevy’s Casebook will be available for all students and staff across the whole university!
We have a very special event planned for our book launch on
Thursday 1 March (World Book Day) – so please watch out for further details.
In honour of the centenary of some women getting the vote in the UK, we are proud to reveal some of the new books that we are publishing in 2018.

All Scottish, all amazing women, all talented writers. Mostly forgotten.
We are proud to be bringing their work back into the light.
We are also publishing some male writers this year, but we will tell you about them another day…
We are now in the third week of the new trimester and things are moving fast!
We have submitted all our book title ideas and are keen to share them with you… soon!
We are also excited to be publishing a full-colour magazine! This will be the all-signing, all-dancing new incarnation of Publishers Inc. The article proposals are undergoing scrutiny as we write and we will be revealing all to you very soon!
But we don’t want to keep you waiting – if you have any relevant placement opportunities, please get in touch NOW.
We are an industry-accredited programme, and we can help you!
Found more fab photos from our Degree Show this year!
Enjoy!
