FOUNDATION YEAR
The Integrated Humanities Foundation Year offers an innovative and exciting introduction to Higher Education and is designed to provide wider access to accredited honours degrees. If you do not meet our traditional entry requirements for direct access to our degree programmes, you can begin your studies with a Foundation Year. Following successful completion of it, you will join students in Year 1 of your chosen degree. All our colleagues who teach at Foundation Year level have extensive experience of teaching in Higher Education. You will continue to be taught by many of them once you progress to degree study. During the Foundation Year these colleagues will support you to gain the essential knowledge and key skills required to thrive on our degree courses.
Here is a sample of the modules you will study during your Foundation Year:
Academic Writing and Skills Development Critical Reflection and Problem Solving
Introduction to Being Human Introduction to Research Research Essay
Students who complete our Humanities Foundation Year go on to their chosen degree pathways thoroughly prepared with a strong knowledge base, robust academic skills, and high levels of confidence, stemming from a supportive year spent in the University. Many of our students have gone on to achieve excellent marks on their degree courses, secure prominent roles within the University (including Student Rep, Ambassador, and internship positions), and get recognised for the difference that they make to those around them. Feel part of the family in a relaxed, nurturing environment where you will be taught in inclusive and dynamic ways. With a personalised and supportive educational philosophy, you will be encouraged to reach your maximum academic potential. Our diverse cohort, with students from various cultures and backgrounds further enriches the student experience.
