Health Sciences (with Foundation Year) at Teesside University - UCAS

Course summary

Course overview: This course includes a foundation year - ideal if you need additional preparation or if you don't have sufficient grades to join Year 1. This course is designed for those who plan to apply for a place on one of our pre-registration courses such as such as nursing, midwifery, paramedic practice, physiotherapy and diagnostic radiography, allowing you to develop the knowledge and understanding of a broad range of health-related topics and professional skills in preparation for your application. Completion of the Cert HE will help you with any future UCAS application^ to study a course in our Nursing, Midwifery & Health Professions leading to eligibility for professional registration, but does not in itself guarantee a place, as other entry criteria apply. Offers are made to eligible candidates on a competitive basis following a selection process. ^Please check the full entry criteria, including any Level 2 (for example, GCSE) requirements, for your chosen pre-registration course. Your Cert HE also gives you access to most of our undergraduate courses in Life & Physical Sciences and Crime, Forensics & Investigative Sciences. Your Cert HE qualifies you to apply for entry to the second year of study (advanced entry) for the following courses: • BSc (Hons) Nutrition • BSc (Hons) Food Science and Technology • BSc (Hons) Health Sciences
