Other requirements

General requirements

For MSc entry, a good relevant Honours degree (first or second class) or equivalent overseas qualifications will be considered.
Given the clear practical element of the programmes, we will also consider non-graduate candidates holding less than a good Honours degree, or its equivalent, but with compensating qualifications or experience may be admitted to the Postgraduate Diploma programme. Transfer to the MSc will be possible later on if exams and course work are at MSc level.
