Programme summary

The MA in Public Advocacy and Activism is an interdisciplinary programme that combines training in the practical skills of advocacy and activism with an exploration of the theories and concepts that inform these fields.

Entry requirements

Candidates must hold at least a Second Class Honours Level 8 primary degree to be accepted onto the MA, but it is possible to be accepted onto the Postgraduate Diploma with a lower academic qualification, and then transition to the MA (within the same academic year) if a student achieves a 60% grade average in the taught modules (which comprise a total of 60 ECTS). (The Postgraduate Diploma is the MA programme without the 30 ECT minor dissertation).
