| Entry requirements | Normally you need to have a first or upper second class honours degree which involved the study of law or legal philosophy. You are required to submit a proposal which specifies • the research question(s) to be addressed • your initial ideas • the legal or policy issues to be examined • an indication of the relevant literature • an outline of the methodology to be used. We interview all applicants and you will be asked to provide a sample of your work. If English is not your first language, you are required to have an average IELTS score of 7.0. This must include a written English score of 7.0 and a score in all other categories of at least 6.0. If your English language skill is currently below IELTS 7.0 or equivalent we recommend you consider a Sheffield Hallam University Pre-sessional English course which will enable you to achieve an equivalent English score If you do not have such academic qualifications we may consider your application individually, based on your personal, professional and work experience, and other formal qualifications. |
