Science & Engineering

📌 Academic

For most science & engineering bachelor’s degrees:

• Completion of 12 years of schooling / equivalent to UK A‑Levels.

• Typical requirement is A‑Level level qualifications with strong grades in relevant subjects (e.g., Mathematics, Science, Computing).

• Equivalent qualifications include IB Diploma (e.g., ~30 points) or Access to HE Diploma with appropriate credits.

If you do not meet direct entry requirements, you may be eligible for a Foundation Year in Science & Engineering, which prepares you for the main degree.

🗣️ English Language Proficiency

International applicants must demonstrate English language ability:

• IELTS Academic: Minimum 6.0 overall, with no component below 5.5 (or equivalent PTE/TOEFL) for most undergraduate degrees.

• If your score is lower, you may be able to take a pre‑sessional English course at the university before starting your degree.

💷 Tuition Fees (International Students)

• Undergraduate International Tuition Fees: Typically £20,000 – £21,500 per year for science & engineering degrees.

• Some estimates from other sources suggest £18,000 – £26,000 depending on the specific programme and year, but the official range at MMU is around £20k–£21.5k.

These fees do not include living costs, accommodation, travel or visa charges.

📑 Required Documents

When applying as an international undergraduate student, you will generally need:
✔ Academic transcripts (HSC or equivalent)
✔ Passport copy (valid at least 6+ months)
✔ English language test result (IELTS/PTE/TOEFL, unless exempt)
✔ Personal Statement (motivation letter)
✔ Reference letter(s)
✔ Bank statement (28‑day requirement for UK visa)
✔ Passport‑size photos

💷 Tuition Fees — International Students

📌 Undergraduate Tuition

• International undergraduate students normally pay approximately:
  £20,000 – £21,500 per year for full‑time taught bachelor’s degrees (including science, computing and engineering subjects).

🧠 Note:
• These figures apply to the 2025/26 academic year as a guide — exact fees for specific courses and future years (e.g., 2026/27) will be confirmed when you apply.
• Fees exclude accommodation, travel, living costs, visa expenses and materials/equipment charges.

🎓 Funding & Scholarships (Undergraduate)

🎯 University Scholarships — Automatic

Manchester Met offers scholarships for international undergraduates that are assessed automatically when you submit your application — you do not usually need to apply separately:

📍 Undergraduate International Scholarship

• Value: £2,000 per year for each year of your degree.

• Who: International students (non‑UK) starting September 2026 entry.

• How: Eligibility is checked when you apply — no separate application needed.

📍 Vice‑Chancellor’s International Regional Scholarship

• Value: 50% of tuition fees in the first year.

• Who: Exceptional international students from selected regions (including South Asia).

• Eligibility: Strong academic performance, accepted offer and self‑funding status; application window typically opens early in the year.

🌍 External Funding Opportunities

In addition to university scholarships, you may be able to access funding from external organisations or government‑sponsored awards:

📌 Examples include:

• British Council scholarship finder — helps locate UK funding opportunities.

• Commonwealth Scholarships — support students from Commonwealth countries.

• Chevening Scholarships — UK government awards for future leaders pursuing graduate study (typically postgraduate level, but worth exploring).

(Check with relevant bodies — applications for external scholarships usually need to be submitted independently of the university offer.)

📌 Key Points to Consider

✔ Tuition fees remain the same each year if you progress normally through your degree without interruptions.
✔ Scholarships are usually partial, reducing your fees — rather than covering living expenses.
✔ Vice‑Chancellor’s Scholarships are competitive and may cover a larger portion of year‑1 tuition for eligible students from regions including South Asia.
✔ Funding doesn’t normally include accommodation or day‑to‑day living costs — you’ll need to budget separately for those.
