Do you want to study a science degree, but either didn’t take the right subjects at A-Level, or didn’t meet the grades for the science-based degree you wanted to study? 

Our 1 year foundation course prepares you for undergraduate study, giving you the subject-specific knowledge and skills you need to progress on to one of our science undergraduate courses. 

After successful completion of your foundation year guarantees you progression on to your chosen undergraduate degree. *

You'll benefit from an accelerated study, meaning you'll only be taught the information you'll need to succeed in your chosen undergraduate degree. You'll also be able to have the ‘university experience’ from day one, allowing you to join societies, clubs, and social events alongside your peers.

*Some courses require you to pass an additional interview.
