APPLICATIONS FOR DEGREE COURSES
Entry requirements
Applicants straight from university will be required to have at least a 2:2 degree in a relevant discipline. For applicants with some years’ industrial experience, a lesser qualification may be acceptable. However each application will be considered individually, the main criterion being the judgment of the registering institution that the potential student has a good chance of completing the programme successfully. Entry requirements for the MSc, PG Diploma and PG Certificate are the same. Applicants whose first language is not English must have achieved one of the following levels of proficiency:
IELTS – 7.0 TOEFL – 600 (Computer based 250) Cambridge CPE – Grade C
Entry requirements for the MSc, PG Diploma and PG Certificate are the same.
Part time UK students only - we will accept a lower qualification of HNC as long as you have at least 7 years work experience within the Nuclear Industry.

Bursary programme

The scheme provides students Bursary awards in the region of £500 - £4,000. These awards are made to individuals who most successful demonstrate how they meet the Bursary criteria.
The scheme is aimed at quality individuals on programmes of study relevant to the decommissioning sub sector of the nuclear industry and includes Foundation Degrees, Honours Degrees, Masters Degrees and Post graduate CPD qualifications. The programme aims to attract a broader mix of new entrants into the nuclear industry and into the wider Science and Technology agenda, leading to increased diversity and opportunity in the sector.
