The CertHE Foundation in Science, Engineering and Mathematics is a one-year introductory course, designed to prepare you to progress to undergraduate study in a non-clinical science, engineering or mathematics degree subject.
Join us at an Open Evening to meet academic staff and ask your questions.
The course is for students returning to education who have not recently studied Level 3 qualifications (such as A-level or equivalent) and includes tailored support to help you transition to degree-level study. You will meet with a personal tutor and have access to the library, peer mentoring and academic skills development, such as essay writing.
We offer progression degrees covering the full range of fundamental and applied science and engineering at Bristol, as well as interdisciplinary degree courses in subjects such as biomedical sciences, data science, engineering design, environmental science and palaeontology and evolution. On successful completion of the foundation year, you will be guaranteed a place on an undergraduate degree, dependent on your foundation pathway (Chemistry or Physics) and your foundation maths unit results.
*this excludes all Biological Sciences and Zoology degrees unless an A in A Level in biology is also held or predicted.
Choosing to study a science, engineering or life sciences degree allows you to develop knowledge and a range of transferable skills that employers value. Our graduates are highly employable, with skills in areas such as numeracy, teamwork, report writing and problem-solving. Bristol graduates are in demand and the University's high academic standards and excellent teaching attract many recruiters.
This course is for students with a 'Home' fee status. 'Overseas' fee status students should refer to our International Foundation Programmes. For information on how to check your fee status, please see our fee status information pages.
Applications are made directly to the University. You can find information about making an application on our how to apply page. If you have questions about the foundation year or the application process, please contact [email protected]
