Acceptable combinations will vary from one programme of study to another. For some degree programmes, compulsory subject requirements may also apply.
In order to determine whether you need any specific qualifications to undertake this opportunity you will need to contact the university directly as there may be course entry requirements.
The Higher Education Open Days are specifically designed for students who are interested in studying an undergraduate (Foundation degree or Honours degree) or postgraduate (Masters Degree) programme at MMU.
