Program overview
A one year master degree in behaviour analysis, covering behavioural assessment, intervention design, autism support practice, ethics, single case research and a project.
Applied behaviour analysis is a recognised international specialism, and Bangor has a long established centre in this field.
Master of Science in Applied Behaviour Analysis is taught at the Bangor University, a UK university with degree awarding powers. Because the applied behaviour analysis master is a degree, it supports an application under the UK Graduate Route, which gives two years of unsponsored work in Britain after the applied behaviour analysis master ends, or three years for a doctorate. To claim it after the applied behaviour analysis master you must be inside the UK on a valid student visa when you apply. One limit applies to the applied behaviour analysis master as to every taught course in Britain: the rules introduced in January 2024 stop taught students bringing a spouse or children as dependants, so the applied behaviour analysis master cannot support a family move.
Applicants to Master of Science in Applied Behaviour Analysis need a completed bachelor degree with a minimum of 60 percent. The English requirement is IELTS 6.5 with no band below 6.0, and tuition for the applied behaviour analysis master is recorded at GBP 21,000 a year. Bangor charges no application fee, so applying for the applied behaviour analysis master costs you nothing, and no scholarship is recorded against it. the applied behaviour analysis master lists only two entry windows a cycle. Apply Study Visa manages the the applied behaviour analysis master application, the deposit, the offer, the CAS and the UK student visa as one process.
