The International Foundation Programme (IFP) prepares international students for undergraduate programmes at the University of Buckingham. It provides a bridge between school study in your home country and undergraduate study at a UK university. The programme combines intensive English language and study skills plus gives you an insight into some of the subjects on offer at degree level. We offer high quality, traditional Oxbridge-style teaching, which leads to our degrees being recognised around the world. The standards of degrees and awards are safeguarded by distinguished external examiners – senior academic staff from other universities in the UK – who approve and moderate assessed work.
