Experience for PhD(science)
I

Alright everybody. I’m looking for some information regarding the pre-requisites for applying for a PhD.
I graduated last year with a 2.1 in Biology and am currently working as a lab tech in a dairy. I would have immediately gone for a Msc in Immunology last year had it not been for a distinct lack of available cash.
Anyway, my honours co-ordinator says that he will not reference me for a PhD until I have a couple of years experience as a research tech in a University. Is this normal or is he just being a twat?
Any information on experience needed would be great.
Cheers
