Entry requirements

Ideally, you should have a 1st Class degree and/or a Masters at Merit of above. If you have an Upper Second Class degree, you should be able to demonstrate a record of work at 1st Class level. Though a Masters degree is not a requirement, Funding (Research Council and College Studentships) is awarded on a competitive basis, and most applicants will have a Masters degree at Merit or Distinction (with many also holding a 1st Class degree). All our applicants are judged on the same criteria: record of academic achievement; quality of research proposal; and fit with the School’s research interests.
