INTEGRATED FOUNDATION YEARS
An integrated foundation year is an introductory year at the beginning of a full degree. If you don’t meet entry requirements for a particular course, the integrated foundation year route provides the opportunity for you to learn the skills and techniques that will enable you to progress to study the full degree.
Alongside an introduction to your chosen subject, you’ll develop valuable study skills and communication, teamwork and problem-solving techniques. These skills will help to build your confidence and prepare you for the rest of your course.
IS AN INTEGRATED FOUNDATION YEAR RIGHT FOR ME?
An integrated foundation year is a great way of beginning your studies if you have qualifications that may not meet the entry requirements for your chosen degree. If you’re applying to study in the UK as an international student, an integrated foundation degree can support you to improve your English language skills alongside your studies.
Degrees with an integrated foundation year are designed with a variety of teaching styles – workshops, lectures, group discussions and tutorials to support you to progress to your chosen degree.
