Your application, especially your personal statement, should explain your motivation for choosing this degree and any relevant non-academic interests and achievements.

Because this course involves a work placement in Year 2, your application is more likely to be successful if you demonstrate an active interest in understanding people, work and organisations. This should include evidence of working with others and developing transferable skills from your studies or through work experience or involvement in extra-curricular activities.
