Our students

Our students are unique in their interests and ambitions. Some of our students are interested particularly in the Arts, whilst others are more interested in the Social and Natural Sciences. Equally, some of our students enjoy exploring modules that cut across the Arts and Sciences.

We welcome students with Arts backgrounds, Science backgrounds, and those who have studied a range of A levels (or equivalent). If you are interested in building your degree around your passions (with our support), this could be the right course for you.

Returning students

We welcome applications from individuals who are returning to study. There are no set entry requirements (although evidence of recent academic study is likely to be an advantage). Each application will be considered individually against the entry criteria for the chosen course. If you have any queries about this, please contact the Undergraduate Admissions Team.
