PhD Weather and climate at University of Reading

Entry requirements

Applicants normally need an undergraduate degree of at least a 2:1 (or equivalent) or a master's degree in a subject related to the proposed PhD topic. In some areas, particularly the arts, humanities, social sciences and business, applicants are normally accepted only with a master's-level qualification. A research proposal is normally required for self-devised projects in the arts, humanities, social sciences and business; it is not required for advertised projects or studentships. Two referees and academic transcripts are submitted through the online application. English language (international applicants): IELTS 6.5 overall is the standard minimum for most PhD programmes; the exact requirement is set in the offer. Recommended deadlines: UK applicants at least two months, international applicants at least four months before the start date. Entry is mainly in September, with a smaller second-semester intake. Requirements apply to University of Reading PhD programmes generally.
