The Science Foundation Programme is designed for both United Kingdom and EU students whose school leaving qualifications are at a high level but do not meet the current subject admissions requirements for direct entry to undergraduate programmes. Foundation Science offers progression to a variety of different schools as shown below. Applications from mature students or students holding 'non-standard' qualifications are positively encouraged. When you enroll on the Science Foundation Programme at Nottingham you will become a full member of the undergraduate community at the University on its beautiful parkland campus. As an undergraduate student on year zero of your chosen degree programme, you will have full access to all the opportunities and facilities that the University has to offer. In fact, unlike many foundation programmes, the Nottingham foundation programme is delivered on the main University campus by academic staff who contribute to science teaching in a variety of different schools. This ensures that the foundation course is fully integrated into your degree programme, and that the topics you cover during the foundation stage are perfectly matched to subsequent stages of your course. For this reason the success rate for students progressing from the Nottingham Foundation Programme is very high.
