Science with Foundation Year (Integrated Honours Programme)
Course Summary
If you haven't studied the A level subjects required by the undergraduate science course you want to study, this course could help you progress.
Our one-year foundation programme will prepare you to succeed on your chosen degree course. The accelerated course will teach you the key skills and knowledge related to the scientific field you want to progress in.
You'll also benefit from the 'university experience' from day one, helping to bridge the gap between secondary school, or college, and university.
Successful completion guarantees progression on to your chosen degree at the University of Nottingham. You must meet the threshold for your chosen undergraduate course however, and a small number of our science degree courses also require you to pass an interview.
This course is for UK applicants only. EU and International students should apply for course code CFGZ.
Course Details - Modules
Science with Foundation Year consists of modules in biological sciences, chemistry, maths, and studying science at university level.
Biology and chemistry are the two main components of foundation science and each run throughout the year.
If you do not meet the IELTs criteria, you will take an English Language module alongside the core modules.
