If you meet our criteria for selection which are based on intellectual ability and managerial experience, you will be invited for interview with the course tutors. There will be plenty of time for you to ask questions. We do not like wasting people's time, and so we aim to make the interview a worthwhile event in its own right, and interviewees have commented that they went away even from the interview with new ideas and perspectives and a sense of having learned something! We see this process as a chance for students to decide if the course is right for them as much as for us to assess their suitability to join the programme.
There is a fee associated with each year of the programme. For Home students joining in October 2010 the approximate cost of the whole programme is £11,000. Follow the link to our Postgraduate Fees page.
