BSc Environmental Science with Foundation Year gives you a broad introduction to the key themes of environmental science. It allows you to develop the base of knowledge and skills before you take a generalised approach, blending different areas of environmental science, or you can choose to specialise down one of three branches; Global Environmental Change, Environmental Biosciences or Environmental Geosciences. The foundation year of the programme provides people with non-standard entry qualifications a thorough and supportive academic preparation for successful degree level study in the Department of Geography. This year is carefully designed to build your confidence in your abilities, develop essential academic and study skills, and provide the subject specific knowledge essential for success.
