Degrees with foundation years
We offer a wide range of undergraduate courses with a foundation year.
The subject-specific modules on the foundation year will give you a strong introduction of what you will learn on your degree.
The foundation year takes place at the beginning of a degree and extends your studies by a year.
Foundation Studies: Certificate of Higher Education
Get the foundational learning, knowledge, and skills to successfully complete your chosen degree and get the career you want.
A one-year Foundation Studies: Certificate of Higher Education (CertHE) will:
- Give you knowledge in the subject you want to study
- Build your confidence and personal strengths
- Develop your ability to adapt your knowledge and skills in the workplace
Once you've completed the year, you can progress onto a degree that is related to your Foundation Studies: CertHE.
Are you a mature student looking to return to higher education but unsure about committing to three or four years? Are you wanting to start a degree, but aren’t sure exactly what subject to commit to?
This programme is for you. It's just one year, so you will get a full taste of university life to give you the insights you need to decide whether to pursue a full degree. And if not? On successful completion you are awarded a CertHE which you can use to further your career ambitions or return to studies later in life.
