Foundation leading to Engineering and Computer Science
This Foundation programme is designed to facilitate access to a wide range of full honours Engineering and Computer Science based degree programmes within Cardiff School of Technologies.
The programme provides an opportunity to widen access for students whose qualifications are not appropriate for normal entry onto a degree course, and those who might have been out of education for some time but have relevant work experience. The curriculum is designed to instil a level of confidence and readiness that will enable you to progress onto your chosen degree.
Upon successful completion, you will have a strong foundation of core knowledge that you will be able to apply to your chosen course. You will gain a thorough and practical grounding in the mathematics concepts and contemporary themes essential to technology. Optional modules will enable you to tailor your studies to your specific interests and chosen degree, and a final project will consolidate your learning. The programme will also facilitate the development of key research skills and transferable skills to aid further study, and will allow you to be fully integrated into student life prior to progressing to year 1.
This programme will undergo periodic review in 2022/23. As such, course content shown below may change to ensure the programme remains current. Any applicants will be informed of any changes once confirmed.
