Want to explore sociology, psychology, criminology, social work, adult nursing practice, or mental health nursing but not quite ready to study at degree level?
Students will study a range of topics that are central or highly relevant to the study of the social sciences. You’ll explore areas such as mental health and wellbeing, contemporary issues in social sciences, and professional practice to help prepare for undergraduate study.
The course has an applied focus – students are encouraged and enabled to apply their theoretical knowledge to real-world problems, such as mental health, psychological wellbeing, and everyday problem-solving.
On successful completion of the foundation year, students will be eligible to progress onto our sociology programme, one of our psychology undergraduate degrees, which are accredited by the British Psychology Society, or one of our criminology degrees. Students interested in social work, adult nursing practice, or mental health nursing can apply and be interviewed for one of these degrees.
During this foundation year, you’ll begin to develop the academic writing and independent learning skills necessary to study a scientific discipline. You’ll also begin to learn the basics of thinking and writing in social sciences.
