A First or 2.1 (hons) bachelor degree in any subject. If you hold a 2.2 (hons) bachelor degree in any subject, or professional qualifications equivalent to Bachelor with Honours/Masters we will consider your application for the MSc course if you have at least three years of relevant work experience in a professional environment. If you hold professional qualifications or Higher education qualifications equivalent to Level 5, we will consider your application for the MSc course if you have at least five years of relevant work experience in a professional environment. Professionally qualified candidates who do not meet the formal qualifications will also be considered but assessed individually. We accept a range of international equivalent qualifications.

Where necessary, students will be expected to improve their English further during the course by making use of the online English tuition support that we provide. Mathematics entry requirements / numerical competence: Applicants will need to demonstrate: the successful completion of a university degree, or the successful completion of a recognised professional qualification with a clear numerical component (e.g., ACCA, CFA), or GCSE or A level Maths (or recognised international equivalent) or other forms of evidence outlining mathematical abilities will also be considered by the Programme Leader. English Language entry requirements: GCSE English language at grade C or above, or IELTS 6.5 overall, with no less than 6.0 in any component, or an appropriate equivalent English language qualification (read more). Other forms of evidence may be considered but will be assessed on a case-by-case basis. In certain circumstances applicants can provide alternative proof of English language proficiency rather than a standard English test. This will be assessed on a case-by-case basis. You should discuss the criteria with your Enrolment Advisor to see if this can be considered.
