Entry requirements
For international students
We usually require applicants to hold at least a second class honours degree (usually a 2:1) or equivalent. You should also have experience of working in education; this may be as a teacher or in another capacity in the field of education. A recognised teaching qualification is an advantage, but not an essential requirement for this course. Our typical offer is 57% - 60% from a recognised university, a 3 year (4 year for Engineering) graduation degree from an AICTE / UGC recognised University.
*There may be different IELTS requirements depending on your chosen course.
