Postgraduate Foundation
Programmes
Foundation Courses
are independently organised by Universities or
Colleges, usually with the aim of preparing the
student to progress to one of the UK
institution's own degree programmes. Foundation
courses cover a wide range of subjects as access
courses and many have a similar career focus.
Several Universities now offer
Access /Foundation programmes for postgraduate
students, aiming at international students who
did their first degree elsewhere and wish to
pursue a postgraduate course in the UK. They are
also most suited to students who require a
substantial amount of English language tuitions
to bring them up to the level required for
postgraduate studies. They are also appropriate
for students who did their first degree sometime
ago and need to refresh their study/research
skills.
These courses are six to nine
months long. They include large English language
components along with training in study/research
skills and a range of optional subjects. A
successful completion should guarantee you entry
to a Master's programme at the same University.
