Entry requirements

Strathclyde Business School (postgraduate research programmes): a first-class or upper second-class UK Honours degree, or overseas equivalent, in a relevant business or social science related subject. For PhD applications a Masters degree, or overseas equivalent, is also normally expected, although there are often exceptions. Grades for independent research work (for example a dissertation) are given particular weight, and a strong score there may allow entry with a lower degree classification. Applications are assessed on the whole person, with the CV and covering letter expected to evidence resourcefulness, commitment and resilience and the ability to undertake and complete a PhD. English language for international applicants: IELTS (or equivalent Secure English Language Test) 6.5 overall with no component below 5.5; study in English within the last five years may also be considered. Pre-sessional English is available.
