We are happy to consider equivalent qualifications (for instance, you may have studied different subjects at undergraduate and masters level but have worked in and/or developed an interest in shipping, logistics or supply chain management sectors since then).
You will also need to provide evidence that you are ready to pursue the project you propose in your application. This will take the form of a research proposal.

Given the nature of the programme, youll be expected to read and engage with complex theoretical texts and debates for which fluency in English is essential.
