The Science Foundation Year (SFY) gives you the opportunity to enter degree courses in science if your qualifications do not meet our normal Level 4 entry requirements. This is a proven route to achievement with a long track record of success. Importantly, the SFY is tailor-made to prepare you for Level 4 of a degree in the forensic science or alternatively the biological sciences or geography. This route is particularly appropriate if you have not studied sciences beyond GCSE. Our approach to the admission of mature applicants and applicants from non-traditional or non-standard academic routes is flexible. Each application is considered individually. Staffordshire University recognises that previous experience gained in work or other areas of life may have prepared mature applicants for a course of study such as this.
