There is no need to include a research proposal on your application. This space is given for students applying for our research programmes.

We ask applicants to choose which sites they wish to attend on their application form. We do, however, allow you to change your choice up until the end of the first week of the programme in September. This is dependent upon places available.

2. Scan of degree certificate(s)

if already awarded (undergraduate and postgraduate). If you are still studying, you can apply without this, but it will be required before you start the programme.

If you are a Home/EU applicant then you have until the end of July to upload a copy of your awarded degree certificate. If you from overseas then the deadline is 30th June. We recommend that you speak to your University and explain that we will need your certificate soon. If need be we can accept a transcript which states that you have been awarded the degree at a particular grade.
