I've had an unconventional academic career, starting in history but going into SocSci for my MSc & PhD. I have significant experience with quant data, statistics and coding, & I worked in tech, but I'm concerned my degree titles may prevent my application being considered. Do you have any guidance?
Hi there, thanks for your patience.
We operate an open access policy, meaning we don’t screen out applications on your academic performance alone. You will, however, need to be working towards an honours degree in Maths, Statistics, Financial Risk, Physics, Economics, Chemistry, Engineering, Computer Science or similar, have a minimum of grade 4/C GCSE (or equivalent) in English Language and Maths, or in your home language if you do not hold English Language GCSE, and three A-levels/Five Highers (or equivalent) to be eligible to apply. Knowledge in SAS, SQL, Python, R or VBA is an added bonus too.
I suggest you have a look at the individual programme page for more information on eligibility: https://ukstudents.ey.com/?jobs=%26program%5B%5D%3D46%26business-area%5B%5D%3D60%26sub-business-area%5B%5D%3D162&;paged=1
I hope this helps!
