The course is delivered online and so you'll require computer access from home. You should be familiar with the use of computers in genealogical studies and the course is standardised on Microsoft Windows. You'll also need to subscribe or pay for certain online databases and services. Course timetables and a FAQ document are available from Strathclyde Institute for Genealogical Studies.
Extra Notes
Direct entry to the part-time MSc isn't available. Students must first complete the PgDip at an appropriate level before being allowed to continue on to the MSc. For the full-time MSc, candidates should normally hold an undergraduate degree, though other forms of qualification and experience may be taken into account. First degrees may also be augmented by previous postgraduate qualifications, such as an MSc. Some experience in genealogical (or other relevant) research is required and we may ask to see examples of reports and/or charts you have created.
