User Experience Design MA: Entry requirements

What you need to apply for this course

Here you'll find the entry requirements for this course. Please read them carefully as they are very important for your application.

A good BA(Hons) degree from a UK university or the academic equivalent in a field relevant to creative production, such as art and design (especially graphic and communication design), the humanities (especially anthropology) or business (especially marketing). Application domains for information technology, such as digital media are also relevant.

You may compensate for any deficit in your academic qualifications with relevant work experience, and evidence that you have the motivation and the ability to study at this level. We consider each individuals application on its own merits. As rough guides, if you do not have an undergraduate (bachelors) degree, you may need around seven years' work experience, but if you have a lower second honours degree from a UK university (2:2), you may need around two years' work experience.
