Our courses

Foundation degrees

A foundation degree is a two-year course which gives you a stand-alone qualification. Upon completion, you'll have the opportunity to progress on to either the second or final year of a BA/BSc at the University.

Extended degrees

If you don’t quite have the right qualifications for your chosen undergraduate course, an extended degree may help you get there. You'll gain the necessary subject knowledge to bring you up to the required standard to progress on to the first year of a degree at the University.

Having a tutor that is working in the industry was a great help and the feedback about my work was honest but constructive so I knew how I could improve. This course provided me with opportunities to network with people whom work in the companies I wanted to work in. This ultimately gave me useful industry links.
