The Science Foundation Programme is designed for both United Kingdom and international students whose school leaving qualifications do not meet the current admissions requirements for direct entry to undergraduate programmes in science. Applications from mature students or students holding 'non-standard' qualifications and/or relevant experience are positively encouraged. With over 50 degrees to progress to, this foundation course will provide you with the best possible background to enter the first year of your chosen degree programme. It's aimed at students whose school leaving qualifications are at a high level but do not meet the subject admissions requirements for direct entry. Mature applicants or those holding non-standard qualifications are encouraged to apply.
