Location of The University of Manchester
The MPhil consists of one year of research culminating in an MPhil thesis and often leads to a full PhD.
As one of the largest Schools of in the UK we cover a huge spectrum of Computer Science topics. We currently have nine individual research groups ranging from Artificial Intelligence to Visual Computing. Our core Computer Science research is augmented by interdisciplinary research taking place at the interface with discipline areas including mathematics, physics, medicine and biology. A detailed overview of the School's research groups, core and interdisciplinary research themes and current projects is available here.
We're keen to receive applications from potential research students in all areas. Although your application is through the School, you are basically applying for a place in a research group or with a particular supervisor. You therefore need to look through our research to find a suitable topic or potential supervisor. Alternatively you can identify a possible project from our list of available projects.

Requirements
Academic Requirement - For the academic year 2009/10 and 2010/11, the standard academic entry requirement for an MPhil or PhD is an Upper Second Class UK Honours degree or international equivalent in a relevant science or engineering discipline, or a first degree with an additional UK Masters degree or international equivalent. The school may require a First Class Honours degree or international equivalent for some research projects. This requirement is specified at the discretion of the academic supervisor involved.
Whilst the most common first degree is Computer Science, we also consider students with backgrounds in an appropriate subject for the research topic (eg mathematics, physics, engineering, biology and medicine).
Langauage Requirement - Students whose first language is not English require a minimum of IELTS 7 or Cambridge Proficiency minimum level C. TOEFL 600 (paper based) or 250 (computer based) may be considered, but IELTS is the preferred qualification. The final decision on the standard of English remains with the Admissions Tutor and other very strong evidence of proficiency may be acceptable.
