The Undergraduate Foundation Programme offers a pathway to the second year of a four-year undergraduate degree at Strathclyde. The programme is designed to prepare you fully for successful degree study.
You can choose from two pathways:
■ Business and Social Studies
■ Engineering and Sciences
Both foundation routes are modular in structure. You will study core modules and subject-specific modules designed to focus on the academic areas most useful for your degree.
Once you have completed the Undergraduate Foundation Programme, and subject to satisfying the progression criteria, you can proceed to the second year of your four year degree at the University. The required progression grade will depend on your chosen degree course.
