International Foundation Programme year

International Foundation Year is a three-term programme of academic subjects, study skills and English language training. The course, which is specifically designed for international students, provides a direct pathway to undergraduate degree study at the University of Leeds.

You will study a combination of core and specialist modules according to your route choice:

  • Business, Law and Social Studies
  • Science, Engineering and Computing

This course will prepare you for challenges of degree study and help you to develop the skills and knowledge you need to succeed at university and beyond. Once you successfully complete the course, and achieve the required grades, you will have the opportunity to progress to the first year of your chosen undergraduate degree.
