Overview

At UEA, we believe everyone should have the chance to study at degree level. You might not yet have the required grades. You may need a little extra support. You may need time to decide where your interests lie. If so, then our Drama with a Foundation Year is the perfect choice. Our Foundation Year is an intensive and exciting year of study. You’ll focus on the topics which interest you, and create a toolkit of essential academic skills. We provide a supportive and rewarding learning environment. You'll study with dedicated lecturers from UEA’s Interdisciplinary Institute for the Humanities. In addition to Drama, you’ll explore a wide range of related academic subjects, including English Literature, History, Philosophy, Film, Media, and Politics. We’ll help you make connections between different disciplines to spark your curiosity. We'll also encourage you to work towards your own individual learning goals. While studying with us, you’ll have access to many opportunities and resources as you pursue your passion for Drama. You’ll familiarise yourself with working in a professional Drama Studio. You can also join our well-respected student-run Minotaur Theatre Company, and enjoy Norwich’s vibrant arts scene which is right on your doorstep. As you develop your own academic interests, you’ll then be well-placed to progress to the degree that’s best for you. After successfully completing your Foundation Year, you can move onto the BA Drama degree. Alternatively, you can request to transfer to another undergraduate course within the Faculty of Arts and Humanities. Use the Foundation Year to springboard onto the degree of your choice and take control of your future studies.
