What you need to apply for this course

Applicants are normally required to have a good honours degree in a relevant area related to health, business or computing, or an academic equivalent of a UK undergraduate degree.

Exceptionally, applicants who have substantial work experience / achievements that indicate equivalent intellectual competence may be considered but there must be strong evidence that the applicant has the motivation to complete the course and the ability to work at this level.

Overseas students are required to satisfy the admissions officer that they have reached an equivalent academic standard as those required for home students.

Please note: each application is assessed on an individual basis and may be subject to additional requirements, such as undertaking short course(s), work experience and/or English language qualification(s). Meeting particular minimum entry requirements does not automatically guarantee a place.

In order to complete your programme successfully, it is important to have a good command of English and be able to apply this in an academic environment. Therefore, if you are a non-UK applicant* you will usually be required to provide certificated proof of English language competence before commencing your studies.

For this course the minimum requirement is Academic IELTS of 6.5 overall with 6.0 in Writing and 5.5 in Reading, Listening and Speaking.

Applicants who do not meet the English language requirements may be eligible to join our pre-sessional English language course.

Please make sure you read our full guidance about English language requirements, which includes details of other qualifications we\'ll consider.

* Applicants from one of the recognised majority English speaking countries (MESCs) do not need to meet these requirements.
