As well as being designed to develop vital scientific skills, the foundation year will also allow you to progress into your subsequent years of study with confidence, as you’ll also be introduced to ways of improving your time management, writing and study skills.Following your foundation year, you will focus more heavily on natural sciences and biology, studying the same course content and having the same choice of modules as those who study our Natural Sciences (Biology) BSc (Hons) degree.Taught in our state-of-the-art superlab – one of Europe’s largest and most advanced teaching labs – you will have access to an array of cutting-edge scientific equipment and have the opportunity to collaborate with other students in this impressive facility. This course shares its foundation year with a number of our other foundation year degrees, allowing you to share ideas across a wide range of scientific disciplines.If, following your foundation year, you decide that you’d like to specialise in a different science-related subject, there is some flexibility to allow you to do this.On graduation, you will be awarded a full undergraduate degree with the same title and award as those who studied the traditional three-year course.
