Entry requirements

  • Admission to a master's or postgraduate programme is normally based on a completed bachelor's degree (or equivalent) in a relevant subject, with overseas qualifications assessed for equivalence. Selection is driven mainly by your grade point average and readiness for advanced study — roughly B grades or better in your final-year undergraduate courses is a good indication; relevant work experience may also be considered. For research-based programmes you should identify a potential supervisor before applying, and you must meet UC's English language requirements.
