MA Child, Family and Community Studies
ADMISSION CRITERIA
Applicants must normally hold a second class
honours degree, lower division (2.2), or higher,
in the area of social care, early education, social
sciences, psychology, sociology, youth and
community studies or cognate discipline.
Applicants who do not meet the minimum
academic requirements, but who have significant
professional or vocational experience in child,
family and community services shall also be
considered. In addition to an application form,
this latter category of applicants may be asked to
present for interview. The Programme Committee
will work to ensure a balance of recent graduates
and professionals among the student intake.
Applications will be assessed based on prior
academic attainment and relevant work/
voluntary experience. Due to the considerable
competition for this programme, satisfying the
minimum entry requirement may not guarantee
applicants a place.
