Some specialist courses are charged differently, with a non-standard fee. This fee is listed on the relevant course page.

*Higher tier fees are charged for MPhil and PhD study based in the School of Science, Engineering & Design to reflect the higher costs of these disciplines. The fee applicable will be clearly stated in your offer letter.

If work is not submitted for examination within the designated writing-up period, the fee will normally revert to the standard fee for the following year.

Courses with non-standard fees are not eligible for fee discounts
