Entry requirements

The entry requirement for this course is a Bachelor (Honours) Degree at 2:2 (or equivalent) in a related subject (e.g. social sciences, criminology, psychology, sociology, law, humanities, forensic nursing, policing). We may also consider lesser qualifications if you have sufficient relevant work experience within the industry. The University does not sponsor students to study on part-time programmes in the UK under the Student Visa route. International Applicants must therefore have other valid immigration leave to study on this programme. Do I need to have my qualification before I apply? No, it is possible to apply whilst you are in the final year of your degree.
