Entry requirements
The normal minimum qualifications are a second-class Bachelor's degree from a UK university or an overseas qualification of an equivalent standard. If you do not meet this requirement then we will still consider your application if you have any qualification in an appropriate field, in addition to extensive relevant work experience. Please note that in very rare cases, a special qualifying examination may be set. This only applies if the applicant does not meet the 2:2 minimum entry threshold, and their work experience is limited and at a junior level. Details of this route can be obtained from the department at the email address at the bottom of this page.
