Applying for postgraduate studies

The first step is to find a course or programme of research that suits you. You can do this by checking the lists of taught postgraduate courses and by ordering a Postgraduate Prospectus.

You should then contact the course organiser or academic unit responsible for handling the course.

Having decided on the course, you must complete and return a University application form for all degree courses. Online application forms are available from the Graduate Research Office website.

Once your application form is completed it needs to be returned to the appropriate address below.

All applications receive an acknowledgement letter, which carries a unique Graduate Application number. Please quote this number in all subsequent correspondence.
