Our STEM Foundation Year programs combine Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics for students aspiring to study STEM disciplines like mathematics but lacking conventional qualifications. These courses take place at the University of Leicester alongside peers who narrowly missed admission to similar programs. The initial foundation year (year 0) prepares students to advance directly to year 1 of our BSc or MMath Mathematics degrees. Successful completion guarantees entry into your selected degree program. Instruction comes from our distinguished faculty across multiple departments. The curriculum focuses heavily on cultivating crucial professional and personal competencies valuable for academic success and future careers. 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 support resources. Each student receives guidance from a dedicated personal tutor.
