Choose your Faculty
Although you will apply to a specific degree programme, your admission will be to one of the University's four Faculties. Each Faculty is led by a Dean (Deans and Pro Deans). The Faculties represent academic staff in the University's Schools and Departments and each School is headed by a research-active senior member of its academic staff.
Each of the four Faculties has its own Faculty requirements which must be satisfied in addition to the subject specific entry requirements. See Degrees and their Entry Requirements - 2013 Entry (PDF, 297 KB)
You should choose the Faculty whose groupings of academic subjects interest you most and within which you intend to take your degree. Bear in mind that some academic subjects are offered by both the Faculty of Arts and the Faculty of Science.
You will normally belong to the same Faculty throughout your university career but most students take course modules offered by several Schools, some of which may be in another Faculty.
