Overview
This course is primarily for candidates who for some reason have not had the opportunity to study the pre-requisite subjects needed for first year entry.
Materials Engineering with a Foundation Year enables entry on to any of our Materials Engineering courses (except Bioengineering) for students that have not studied the correct subjects, or not quite achieved the qualifications required, perhaps due to illness, family issues or other commitments. Offers will not normally be made to those who apply simply because their A-level grades/predictions are below the requirements for direct entry to the degree programme.
It is a one year programme which will enable you to progress onto the first year of your chosen degree course, provided the relevant progression criteria are met. Successful completion of the course allows you to progress onto any of the courses offered by the Department of Materials (except Bioengineering). Our foundation course is taught in-house by University staff. As a student on the course you will be a full member of the University, with the same access to the Students’ Union, clubs, societies, sports facilities and support departments.
