Our STEM Foundation Year programs combine Science, Technology, and Engineering for students aspiring to pursue STEM disciplines like Chemistry but lacking conventional qualifications. These courses operate on the University of Leicester campus alongside peers who narrowly missed direct entry to similar programs. The initial foundation year (year 0) focuses on achieving the necessary qualifications to advance directly into year 1 of our BSc or MChem Chemistry degrees. Successful completion guarantees progression to your selected undergraduate program. Instruction comes from distinguished faculty across multiple departments, with a strong focus on cultivating crucial professional and personal competencies for academic and career success. As a foundation year student, you'll fully integrate into university life - participating in student organizations, accessing campus facilities, residing in university housing, and utilizing our comprehensive support systems while enjoying the complete Leicester student experience.
