Life as a foundation year student

During a foundation year you’ll learn about your chosen subject, develop your study skills and get used to university life. On successful completion of your foundation year, you’ll be ready to progress to the first year of your degree course.As a foundation year student, you’ll be a full student of the University and part of our community.

What you will study

In your first two years, you’ll study a variety of topics, ensuring you have a solid foundation upon which to build the rest of your degree.
