The MSc in Global Ethics and Justice enhances your understanding of pressing worldwide concerns while equipping you with theoretical and analytical tools to examine their moral implications. Core modules establish a solid academic foundation, allowing you to tailor your research through a dissertation focused on your particular interests.
Run by the Philosophy Department, this adaptable program features diverse ethics-focused courses. Students can engage in academic seminars or gain practical experience through NGO placements.
The Department boasts internationally renowned scholars investigating critical areas including: public health, environmental sustainability, fundamental rights and international equity, conflict resolution, medical ethics, and equality issues. These complex global challenges frequently demand interdisciplinary methods combining ethical theory with international relations to thoroughly assess interconnected world problems.

Qualification Requirements
The programme allows for multi-disciplinary entry. You need an upper second-class Honours degree, or equivalent, preferably in Philosophy or another relevant subject (e.g. Theology, Sociology), or a Joint Honours degree of which Philosophy or another relevant subject is a component.
If your undergraduate degree is in another subject, you are still very welcome to apply. We consider every application on its merits and we are happy to consider applicants with diverse academic backgrounds. Your level of academic achievement, letters of reference, and personal statement will all have strong influence on our decision. We may also require you to submit a writing sample. This should be around 3-4 pages long, and although it does not need to be a Philosophy essay, it should provide strong evidence of your potential for the type of discursive, analytical, writing that is required in Philosophy at postgraduate level.
IELTS 6.5 with no less than 6.0 in any band is equivalent to:
TOEFL: 88 overall with no less than 21 in Reading, 20 Listening, 22 Speaking and 21 in Writing
