Our courses
Foundation Year
Foundation Year modules The modules you will take will help build your maths and statistics skills, your organisational problem-solving skills, such as creativity, leadership and teamwork, and give you a chance to work on academic practices like research, critical thinking, and university level writing. They will also develop your knowledge on general areas of business, like marketing, operations management, accounting and finance, and help you conduct research to solve real organisational problems. For further information about the structure of the Foundation Year please check our website.
What happens if I am shortlisted? Shortlisted applicants will normally be invited to attend a selection day which may take place online or in person, to assess your academic potential and commitment to further study. Offers may be conditional on you meeting academic or other requirements. Don’t worry about this – many students have conditional offers. Once you have met your conditions, the offer will automatically be made unconditional. Foundation Year fees We offer a full scholarship to all students who are selected to study on the course, covering the full tuition fees of the Foundation Year. Fees for subsequent years will be charged at the standard home fee rate. In addition students can apply for Warwick bursaries to support their living costs.
