Foundation programmes
Our Foundation Pathways offers an outstanding opportunity for international learners from 12 year education systems to enter the university environment one year before the start of a UK undergraduate degree programme.
The 2 year International pre-Masters programmes in Biosciences, Economics or International Development and Relations, are designed to bridge the gap for students who who do not meet the entry requirements for our 1 year Masters programmes.
In addition we are also pleased to offer a PG Certificate in pre-Doctoral studies which is designed to prepare you for PhD study at the University of Birmingham.
