The Science Foundation Year can be your route onto a science degree at Southampton if you haven’t studied the necessary subjects to meet our direct entry requirements. If you can achieve ABB at A-level, or are a mature student with relevant skills and experience, then this course can be your way into the sciences. Completion of this Foundation Year leads onto many undergraduate degrees across disciplines including Audiology, the Biological Sciences, Chemistry, Environmental Science, and the Ocean and Earth Sciences. The year provides an intensive one year introduction to biology, chemistry and mathematics, which will prepare you for your chosen undergraduate degree at Southampton. Successful completion of this Foundation Year will guarantee you a place on your chosen Science Degree. You'll learn the clinical and professional skills you need to become an audiology healthcare professional. The first 3 years of this integrated audiology master's programme follow our BSc Audiology.

Hearing loss, deafness, tinnitus and balance problems are major health issues and have an impact on quality of life. You’ll learn to manage these conditions and support patients while developing academic, professional and employability skills.
