This Foundation Year will introduce you to the study of Law and Social Sciences at a higher level. It is a great opportunity to spend an extra year studying with us to make sure you are fully prepared to take on the challenge of Higher Education. You will study alongside students who intend to progress onto various different courses within these areas. This means you will have the chance to go beyond your chosen subject and explore the issues we discuss from a wider range of angles. The full list of degree courses which you can study with this foundation year are listed below.

We will prepare you for degree level study by helping you develop essential academic skills. As well as learning about key aspects of Law and Social Sciences, you will learn to:

Organise, plan and manage research projects
Write in an academic style
Present evidence and argument
Engage in critical debate.
These skills are valuable not only in your degree, but in your career after university.

This is the course for you if are excited about getting into Higher Education but do not want to dive straight into an undergraduate degree. This might be because you have been out of education for a while, you do not yet have the entry requirements for the course you want to do, or you just do not feel ready yet.
