Integrated degrees, where there is a taught Master’s course or a Master’s by Research course in the first year of the programme, will have the scholarship applied to the PhD element of the programme. This means that the scholarship will be awarded in year one but applied in year two (or at the point the taught phase ends and the student progresses to the research phase).
English language requirements must be met at the point of application, at the appropriate level for the programme. Details of English entry requirements can be found on the individual programme page to which a prospective student is applying.
Conditional offers will only be issued to those applicants who are waiting for their degree to be awarded.
