Physics (with a Foundation Year) - BSc (Hons)

Our UK Foundation Years offer the opportunity for UK students who don’t meet our standard entry grades to prepare for a STEM degree at Lancaster University. You’ll study your Foundation Year at the Lancaster University School of Mathematics, based at our delivery partner, Cardinal Newman College in Preston. However, with accommodation on Lancaster University’s campus and access to all our facilities, you’ll still be fully involved in university life. Our Foundation Years will follow the same semester dates as Lancaster University, with taught sessions taking place at Cardinal Newman College on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. Wednesdays will not carry any formal teaching hours, but might be utilised for project or practical work on site at Lancaster University or remotely. The teaching day will run from 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM, with free transport from our Lancaster campus to Cardinal Newman College provided four days a week during term time. Timetabled sessions for Foundation Year students will be structured to incorporate elements of university-style learning, to include a combination of taught sessions, group work, problem-based learning and project work. You will study three modules linked to your chosen degree during the year. Your timetable will include a combination of compulsory and optional STEM based modules, which will reflect your chosen degree pathway.Important InformationFor the most up-to-date course information and more details, we recommend that you revisit our website before submitting your application.
