Do you currently work in the civil service, police force or security services? Are you hoping to develop your knowledge of terrorism and security in a variety of professional contexts? If so, we’d like to hear from you. We’re looking for students with a second class honours degree in a related subject, as well as a clear desire to study the course. We also consider applicants without an undergraduate degree but with relevant work experience. You’ll need to submit a personal statement with your application, which should explain why you want to do the course and the skills that will enable you to complete it successfully. In addition, you should already have some basic understanding of terrorism and security, and how it relates to wider society. Applicants are asked to submit a personal statement with their application. A good personal statement explains why you want to do this course, why you want to do it now, and what skills you already have that will help you complete the course successfully. A demonstration of an awareness of the demands of the course (intellectually and in terms of the time commitment) is also of benefit to those reviewing your application. Please note that the January start date is for Distance Learning only. To join this MA you should have a second class honours degree, 2:2 or above, in Politics, History, Sociology, Criminology or related social science and humanities subject. We welcome applications from students who may not have formal/traditional entry criteria but who have relevant experience or the ability to pursue the course successfully. International applicants will be required to show a proficiency in English. An IELTS score of 6.0 with no element below 5.5, is proof of this. We accept qualifications from all around the world. Find your country to see a full list of entry requirements. We also accept a range of other English language qualifications . If you do not have the English language requirements, you could take our Pre-Sessional English course . The Accreditation of Prior Learning (APL) process could help you to make your work and life experience count. The APL process can be used for entry onto courses or to give you exemptions from parts of your course. Two forms of APL may be used for entry: the Accreditation of Prior Certificated Learning (APCL) or the Accreditation of Prior Experiential Learning (APEL).

STRUCTURE Your personal statement should be logically ordered and interesting, it must show why you are interested in this line of study and must demonstrate your ability to take the qualification. A possible structure that you could use is as follows: Current Studies • Degree - how your studies relate to your postgraduate application.This is particularly important if you are applying for study or research that does not seem to obviously follow on from your present course • Subject areas - mention those related to the postgraduate course that show a relevant base of knowledge • Technical skills that you have developed that may relate to your future studies • Related projects that you may have worked on, including group projects, labs and individual projects • Evidence of managing your project - research skills, the application of experimental methodology etc Why this Master’s/PhD? • Show your motivations - what particularly appeals to you about the course or research topic? • Link your plans for future study with your career aspirations • Demonstrate that you are making an informed decision by referring to research that you have done into the course, studies or research area. It is essential to show that you are genuinely motivated to follow this route and have thoroughly thought it through, in order to show that you will not drop out when the going gets tough Past Work Experience • An opportunity to demonstrate that you are able to adapt and ‘fit in’ to a range of environments and experiences • Mention how you were successful, and any achievements that demonstrate your ability to work effectively • Cite relevant skills that may relate to the course or your career aspirations, and achievements, perhaps in challenging situations • If the experience is not directly related to your application then think about showing the transferable skills that you have used and developed Extra-curricular Activities & Interests • You can talk about these to show your personality and demonstrate transferable skills e.g. team-work, ability to take on responsibility, communication, etc. • Think about what to include.Is it interesting and relevant; does it add value to your overall statement? Why this University? • Showing why you have selected this route of study in this particular university/department/group crucially demonstrates motivation and enthusiasm • For postgraduate research applications in particular it is important to show that you have investigated the area in depth. Perhaps mention individual research groups, projects, particular individuals, etc. and link these in with your own research interests and activities • If applying to a university overseas you could state what you will gain and give culturally.
