We require a First or Upper Second class honours degree (2:1, with 60% average) from a UK university or the overseas equivalent. Your degree background must be in a quantitative subject such as mathematics, statistics, physics, engineering, computing, management science or economics, and we require you to demonstrate study of quantitative modules (e.g. maths, statistics, calculus) consistently throughout each year of your studies and achieve good grades. Study of programming is desirable, but mathematical-related modules are essential.
When assessing your academic record we take into account your grade average, position in class and the standing of the institution where you studied your qualification. We particularly welcome applicants from institutions of high ranking and repute.
