In your application, you may specify up to two postgraduate courses, for example, MSc Advanced Computing and MSc in Computing (Software Engineering). Although these choices are a useful indication for evaluating your application, one purpose of the application process is to determine which course really best suits your needs. These choices are therefore only indicative and non-binding; applicants can be accepted on a taught postgraduate course that they did not specify on their application form.
Applicants to our MSc Computing (Specialism) degrees must have taken computing courses that equate to two years of a computer science undergraduate programme.
Applicants to our MSc in Artificial Intelligence must have taken a degree with a substantial amount of mathematics.
For more information, see the page for the specific MSc degree.
No - we no longer require GREs for any computing postgraduate degrees.
Please consult the fees pages for our MSc courses, noting that this may show the fees from the past academic year and so fees may be higher than those shown.
Details of scholarships are available from the College website.
These matters are decided by college policy, not by our department. Please consult the page on English Requirements for Postgraduate Applicants for a list of tests that the college accepts.
In principle, this is possible and even encouraged. However, there are some constraints and concerns that need to be addressed for such arrangements. Please refer to our guidelines on this issue.
We look at 'A level' performance to give some indication of ability but we are particularly interested in your most recent studies. It is therefore advisable to include an up-to-date transcript with your application.
