Postgraduate fees

Standard full-time postgraduate fees (academic year 2013-2014)

The majority of tuition fees for postgraduate programmes follow the structure below, however many fees are non-standard so you will need to consult the programme description found within the subject listings to confirm. Tuition fees normally increase on an annual basis.

Science

Research degrees (MbyRes, MPhil, PhD)
UK/EU £3,850
International £17,100
Taught degrees (MSc, MRes)
UK/EU £5,950/£6,800
International £17,000

Humanities and Social Sciences

Research degrees (MbyRes, MPhil, PhD)

 International  £14,000
Taught degrees (MA, MRes)

The fee stated for a full-time Masters will usually be the total fee for a one-year programme. Fees for part-time and modular programmes (where available) are pro-rata. For programmes that are studied part-time or for which the duration is more than one year, you should expect a fee increase in subsequent years.

If you are unsure if you will pay UK/EU or international fees, our fee status page provides further details.

Living costs

In addition to your programme fee, you will also need to consider how you will fund your living expenses. We recommend that you budget £800 per month for living costs in addition to your programme fee.
