Entry requirements
Applicants will normally be expected to hold an initial degree in a discipline relating to health or the broad range of determinants of health (which could be anything from planning to biomedical science, sociology to nutrition). However, other qualifications of an appropriate level can also be suitable for admission, particularly if you are able to demonstrate significant experience in a relevant setting. Students entering directly following completion of a Bachelor degree are generally expected to hold at least a 2:1 classification – to ensure that they are equipped for the step up to Masters level study. However, we consider each situation on its own merits depending on the undergraduate subject of study and other factors such as relevant experience (paid or voluntary).
