Course summary

Are you looking for a new direction in your life and career? The Foundation Year can provide you with a path into a whole range of degree programmes. It’s not a stand-alone year. It’s the integrated first year of a four year degree programme or a five year sandwich course. It’s the first step in your university career. It is designed for students who do not have the qualifications or experience for direct entry onto a three-year undergraduate programme. If you’re thinking about returning to education after a break or if you’ve had some tough times in education before, the Foundation Year can help you to build your confidence and academic skills. It will prepare you for your degree studies in a supportive and stimulating learning environment.
