How to Apply for Postgraduate Taught Programmes
The deadline for applications is the 30th of July 2020.
Please note: We advise students to apply as soon as possible to avoid disappointment as programmes may fill early. Also, if international applicants apply too late you may not be able to obtain a visa in time to begin the programme.
Apply Online
You can apply to one of our programmes online; follow the "Apply Online" tab on the programme that interests you. Many applications are submitted without complete paperwork, which will cause a delay in processing. Please ensure all elements of your application are included at the time of submission. You will need to provide the following documents:
- Transcripts from your previous university education showing subjects and grades (which must be translated in English).
- Proof of English Proficiency (for international non-native English speaking applicants), for example the IELTS test with a minimum overall score of 6.5 (with at least 5.5 in each component). Please see our admissions pages for further details.
- A letter of academic reference (please try and have this available before you apply, or, arrange for it to be sent directly to the postgraduate admissions coordinator as references are not requested on your behalf)
- A recent curriculum vitae
- Statement of Purpose
If you are unsure about whether to apply or have any questions about your application you can e-mail the School of Engineering and Materials Science.
Full guidance notes are provided during the online application process. If at any stage you require any advice or assistance, or encounter any difficulty in using the online application service, please e-mail the main admissions office.
Students submitting an application overseas may wish to contact one of our authorised local representatives from the International Office for assistance with the online application. Representatives can help you through the application process step by step and can upload documents. They do not charge for their services.
