**Course overview** - This foundation year builds on your mathematical skills, preparing you for entry onto the BSc (Hons) Mathematics degree. - A Foundation Entry course is ideal if you’ve got the ability to study for a degree, but don’t have the necessary formal qualifications to directly join an honours programme. It’s a great stepping stone to a full degree. - Early on in the course you’ll attend a residential team building activity, so you’ll get to know staff and students, and develop friendships that’ll last throughout your studies. - The syllabus covers a range of mathematical topics, including the applications of mathematics in physics and engineering. - At the end of your foundation year, and with good grades, you can progress onto the mathematics degree, or onto a degree in physics, astrophysics, or engineering. **Why study with us** - Mathematics is 1st in the UK with 100% of students satisfied overall with their course - National Student Survey 2020. - Our Maths Society provides opportunities to solve mathematical problems, attend maths-related events and share your passion for maths. - There are opportunities to go on international field trips which have an educational purpose. Previous students have been as far afield as Benin in West Africa. **Further information** You can broaden your knowledge of mathematics, and its application in specialist areas, by attending seminars hosted by the Institute of Mathematics and Its Applications (IMA).
