REQUIREMENTS AND SUPERVISION
Working with my supervisor has been very encouraging. She creates space for me to explore my own ideas while guiding me toward greater clarity and originality. There is a strong sense that she is invested in helping me build something that is genuinely my own. I feel supported, trusted, and quietly championed.
English language requirements If English is not your first language, you must meet a minimum overall standard in a recognised test of English. ■ IELTS (Academic): Overall IELTS (Academic, UKVI or Online) score of 7.0 and minimum component scores of two at 6.0/6.5 and the rest at 7.0 or above ■ PTE Academic: 70 with 51+ in every section ■ CPE: Grade C (CEFR level C2) or above ■ CAE: Grade C scoring 60+, no worse than three component results at borderline and one at weak. Faculty Our faculty is made up of world-leading experts, and more than a third of our staff come from countries outside the UK, making WBS truly international. A large majority of our faculty are research-active, and the majority supervise doctoral research. Supervision For both of our programmes you will be allocated a supervisor during the second year of your MRes. A second supervisor will be allocated if you are admitted into the PhD, at the end of the MRes. The two supervisors will have appropriate research expertise and interests. At WBS we feel that the student/supervisor relationship should focus on an alignment of purpose; it is all about embarking on a journey together through your research. Students are not required to find a supervisor before joining the programme. To find out more, visit our website: W wbs.ac.uk/go/academics
