Qualification Requirements
The normal requirement for admission to all Research programmes in the School is a 2:1 (upper second class) degree award, or the overseas equivalent, in a relevant subject.
However, we consider all individual applicants on their specific merits. If you do not have the standard qualifications for the course you may still apply and your application will be considered. Interviews may be conducted to identify and assess the academic merit of prospective students.
Applicants may be requested to submit their master's dissertation or other appropriate research writing for review. Applicants may be interviewed.
Applicants are also required to submit a Research Proposal (word limit/suggested length: 2,000-3,000 words).
Non-native speakers of English are expected to have a recognised English-language qualification (e.g. IELTS with a total score of 7 and no subsection below 6.5), as the minimum requirement to be invited to interview. Written and oral competence in English might also be tested at interview.
TOEFL (iBT) - At least 100 overall
