At least one of your previous degrees should be in an area relevant to your proposed research. We will also need to see your degree transcripts, which provide a breakdown of your marks, in addition to your degree certificates. In general, we do not admit, directly to the MPhil/PhD, students whose master’s degree is an MBA; we instead recommend our MRes Management as preparation for the MPhil/PhD degree. English language: IELTS Academic 7.0 overall with at least 6.0 in each component.
