A First or 2.1 (hons) bachelor degree in any subject.

If you hold a 2.2 (hons) bachelor degree in any subject, or professional qualifications equivalent to Bachelor with Honours/Masters we’ll consider your application for the MSc course if you have at least three years of relevant work experience in a professional environment or for the PGCert course if you have at least two years of relevant work experience.

Professionally qualified candidates who do not meet the formal qualifications will also be considered but assessed individually.

We accept a range of international equivalent qualifications. For information, please contact our Enrolment Advisors at studentenquiries.online@leeds.ac.uk.
