Expected Academic Standard
Applicants for this course should have achieved a UK High II.i Honours Degree.
If your degree is not from the UK, please check International Qualifications to find the equivalent in your country.
Please note that the Department has a higher minimum academic requirement than the University's standard.
To be considered for admission and/or funding, applicants should have, or be expected to receive:
- A high 2.i (or equivalent from an overseas institution) in their undergraduate degree
- If a Master's degree has been completed or is being pursued, a final mark of similar level would be expected.
- A degree in chemical engineering, a biological science, engineering, chemistry, applied mathematics, physics or related subjects.
- If your degree is not from the UK, please check International Qualifications via the above link to find the equivalent in your country.
**Please note that the admissions process is highly competitive, and meeting the minimum entry requirement does not guarantee you will be offered an interview. The normal intake is primarily of students with consistantly high marks throughout their academic career, with final marks being in the First Class range (or equivalent from overseas).
