Entry requirements

For entry onto one of our PhDs, you should normally have, or expect to obtain, at least Masters degree (or international equivalent) at merit or 60% and above in a closely related subject to your proposed disciplinary field of study. For applicants whose backgrounds do not qualify them for direct entry, we may recommend a ‘conversion course' in the form of one of our Masters courses. Intending research students are expected to have relevant prior research training at postgraduate (for PhD) or undergraduate (for MRes or MPhil) level (or international equivalent).
