Entrance Requirements

Academic

MSc
A good degree in an appropriate discipline acceptable to the University.

Postgraduate Diploma/Certificate
A degree or a technical or professional qualification and experience considered appropriate and relevant by the University.

Short courses
Applicants may hold the qualifications specified above for entry to the Postgraduate Diploma/Certificate or to the MSc degree. Alternatively, if they do not hold such qualifications, the University may still consider the application but will require evidence of the student’s ability to undertake an advanced course of study.

Other

English language
For all applicants a high level of English language ability in reading, writing and study skills, equivalent to a score of 6.0 in the IELTS test or a score of 580 in the paper-based test (PBT), 237 in the computerised test (CBT), or 90 in the Internet test (IBT) is required. Applicants may be asked to provide evidence of language ability as tested by the British Council or another registered body.

Computing requirements

Access to use of a computer is considered a requirement of studying with the DLP*. The degree of access necessary can vary with the type of qualification being taken and the study modules involved. However, computer access for email communication with the DLP team, tutors and supervisors is essential.

Those studying for an MSc must be able to spend sufficient study time using a computer if they are to effectively complete the research methods module. This module, R106, is compulsory and requires the use of computer-based statistical software.

You should have access to a PC with the following capabilities:

  • Internet connection and an up-to-date web browser such as Internet Explorer 6.0 or above

  • CD drive (at a minimum, you will need to investigate the content and interactive elements of CD-based courseware)

  • Access to email

  • Software that can read Word and PDF files

  • Sufficient capacity for downloading and use of any required software

  • In some instances, a floppy disk drive

Access to a printer is highly desirable as it will enable you to print hard copies of materials directly from the CD-based courseware.

*Prospective students are requested to contact the University if the prerequisites for computer and printer access are likely to cause difficulties.
