Other requirements

General requirements

At least a 2:1 degree in a social science subject, or

an equivalent degree in another subject, together with substantial relevant work experience.

Underlying these conditions is a belief that students must bring a minimum combination of theoretical knowledge and practical experience to the programme. Marginal cases are often dealt with at interview, and it is not uncommon for relatively inexperienced students to be asked to defer entry.

Two references are required. At least one of these should be an academic reference from the most recent place of study.
