International Year One - Engineering & Computer Science

About this route
The International Year One in Engineering & Computer Science will develop your subject knowledge and English language skills, whilst preparing you to join the second year of your chosen undergraduate degree at the University of Huddersfield’s School of Computing and Engineering.

You will have the additional benefit of smaller class sizes and more support to help you develop your academic knowledge, study skills and language abilities to prepare you for your degree.

You will study several core modules focused on general skills, but the majority of your programme will be the specialised academic content relevant to your chosen undergraduate degree.

Why study Engineering & Computer Science?

  • Progress on to a career-focused, professionally accredited degree with a high graduate employment rate
  • Opportunity to prepare for your future career with our integrated CareerAhead activities, as well as engagement with University departments and local businesses.
