MA courses Applicants for MA courses will normally be expected to have obtained upper second-class honours, or equivalent, in an undergraduate degree that includes some philosophy. Alternatively, a very good honours degree that includes a substantial amount of philosophy will be acceptable. All candidates are initially registered for the MPhil degree. Re-registration for a DPhil is dependent upon the submission of a satisfactory proposal and a sample of written work that meets the standards required for the higher degree.
