The Bachelor of General Studies - Foundation Year Pathway is the first year of the Bachelor of General Studies and is designed as an alternative entry pathway to university study. In the foundation year, students study units which provide the skills and knowledge related to their intended pathway and are provided with additional support to maximise their chances of success. Completion of the foundation year will provide achievement at Introductory level in at least two units. Students who successfully complete the foundation year of the Bachelor of General Studies can exit with a Diploma of University Studies. Pathways currently offered in the Bachelor of General Studies are Arts, Education and Science. The course will be offered full time or part time at Hobart, Launceston and Cradle Coast and by distance. Note that not all units will be available by distance.
