The Foundation Year programme will help you develop an understanding of the key subjects in social sciences so that you can continue to successfully study your degree in Criminology or a related subject. The key areas of study are effective communication and study skills, combined with fundamental subjects in the social sciences. You will study modules such as sociology, criminology, social policy and social care to explore inequalities associated with gender, class, race, disability and health, using different theories to understand social change and how societies try to address inequalities and discrimination. This foundation year is part of a four year pathway which will prepare you to study your chosen social sciences course. This course is not open to international students.
