• an independent venture
• a corporate venture
• a family venture
• a social venture

Typically, we require a Bachelor degree with a final overall result of at least First Class. However, due to the number of different grading scales in use, we ask that you upload a copy of the grading scale used by your institution, along with your transcript, when you submit your application.
 

Type of degree
 

• Your degree can be in any discipline.
• The course will appeal to you if you’ve studied a subject like science, engineering, the arts or social science. If your first degree is in business or management, then you might find the course has too much overlap. We will consider all applications.
• If you studied your undergraduate degree in the UK, your qualification must be equivalent to a 2:1 or above.
• We may make an offer based on a lower grade if you can provide evidence of your suitability for the degree.
   

Work experience
 

In exceptional cases, relevant work experience may be a substitute for the degree requirement. You should have no more than three years’ relevant work experience.
 

English language requirements
 

IELTS
 

You will need an International English Language Test System (IELTS) score of at least 7.0 overall. Your scores for reading, writing, listening and speaking must be at least 6.5.
 

These results must be no more than two years old from the start date of your MSc course.
