You will have, or be predicted, at least a 2:2 degree in a strongly numerate subject (e.g. computer science, mathematics, physics), OR a 2:2 in a health/life sciences degree AND demonstrate good programming ability in a modern computer language. Alternatively you will have strong skills in maths, computing or engineering, but not necessarily have a degree. Computer programming ability will be assessed with a short simple test as part of the selection process. We will also use your personal statement and a short interview to determine which students receive full fees and stipend. A personal statement, detailing your reasons for seeking to undertake this subject, will be required. Who can apply for this course?: - Graduates with a Computer Science, Physics, Engineering or Maths degree, may not have any prior life sciences, medical or health experience. - Graduates with Life, Health or Medical Science degrees (or Medicine intercalators) with proven basic computer programming skills. - Graduates with a strongly numerate degree AND working as analysts in the NHS or other health related organisations. - People without a first degree, but who can demonstrate evidence of strong quantitative skills and experience, for example if they have been working in the NHS and have good computer programming and maths Accreditation of prior learning for Masters courses in Healthcare and Medicine Accreditation of Prior Learning (APL) is a process whereby students, who have already gained relevant skills and knowledge prior to the start of their course, may be granted a partial credit exemption from their programme instead of unnecessarily repeating work.
