Admissions
Qualification requirements

An MBA does not qualify for direct Ph.D. entry, regardless of CGPA. MBA holders may be considered for the M.Phil./Ph.D. pathway, subject to admission review.
M.Sc.
- Bachelor's degree in a relevant field (Second Class Lower or above, subject to transcript), OR
- Mature candidates: PGD plus B.Sc./HND in a relevant field and at least 5 years of relevant work experience.
M.Phil./Ph.D.
- Master's degree (Second Class Lower or above) in a relevant field.
- The M.Phil. is not standalone — it is a structured pathway that leads to the Ph.D.
Ph.D. (Direct)
- An MBA does not qualify for direct Ph.D. entry, regardless of CGPA. MBA holders may be considered for the M.Phil./Ph.D. pathway, subject to admission review.
- Master's degree from Babcock or a recognised university with at least a 60% average or CGPA 4.0/5.0.
- CGPA 3.50–3.99 (or 55–59%): conditional admission after 16 credits of Master's-level coursework at 60% or above.
