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 as wide range of
subjects as access courses and many have a similar
career focus.
Several Universities now offer Access /Foundation
programme for postgraduate students, aiming at
international students who did their first degree
elsewhere & 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.
