This course has been carefully designed in collaboration with industry to ensure that you graduate ready for employment, with core technical skills and knowledge as well as employability skills such as communication, leadership and collaboration.

The foundation year

This foundation year is a preparatory year designed for students who are passionate about engineering but may not yet meet the entry requirements for our degree programmes. Over the course of a year, you’ll build a solid grounding in key subjects such as mathematics, engineering principles, and problem-solving, while developing practical skills through hands-on projects and lab work. The foundation year will provide you with a smooth transition to progress on to one of our engineering degrees and set you up for a successful educational journey.
