Cheers Tom, I'll definitely start searching.

Thanks for the recommendations Indiana, really cool to see books on different approaches to UX, especially the team of one.

Thanks for the awesome list Adrian, I didn't really consider getting involved with the community but it makes a lot of sense. I'll be keeping an eye on those meet up dates.

Thanks for the recommendations, I'll definitely give them all a look.

Kingston University hopefully, it's pretty local for me and luckily it's one of the few universities in the UK that offers a UX specific postgrad course.

Hey Stefan, thanks for the resources, I'll definitely check them out.

Fingers crossed, I'll be studying at Kingston University in London.

'm pretty much in the exact same boat. I just graduated with a bachelors in Information Systems but my vision is to have a career in UX.

Here in London there doesn't even seem to be any UX Internships. I have a decent grasp of the field due to a lot of reading, now just to work on the portfolio.

I've chosen the path of taking Masters Degree in UX Design and I'll be starting this winter due to a lot of job listings requiring a degree in a related field just like you've pointed out plus it will hopefully build up my portfolio a little. So maybe that could be an option for you or maybe courses like the ones offered at http://designation.io
