Expected Academic Standard
Applicants for this course should have achieved a First class Honours Degree.
If your degree is not from the UK, please check International Qualifications to find the equivalent in your country.
Applicants must have a first-class honours degree or equivalent; a master's-level degree (or other postgraduate work or qualifications) is highly desirable.
We accept students from a wide range of academic backgrounds, but applicants should demonstrate significant relevant preparation for the interdisciplinary and global risk and resilience aspects of their research.
