    Usually, students with a variety of backgrounds and experience are accepted to astronomy courses and the entry requirements may be flexible. No particular previous knowledge or experience of astronomy is expected, but you should be able to demonstrate a strong interest in the subject. You will need to show an aptitude for mathematics and physics and other sciences which may aid your application include geology, geography, statistics, environmental science, chemistry and biology. Please check the specific requirements set by your chosen university.
