sustained and substantial work in a field cognate to the degree at an appropriate level

the ability to undertake, write up and present an honours-level research study

an appropriate level understanding of research methods and human physiology

the ability to study independently and communicate effectively.

Claims for recognition of prior learning will also be considered (both prior experiential learning and prior certificated learning).
