Foundation leading to Accounting, Economics and Finance

Course Overview

This programme provides a generic route of study enabling students to access the first year (Level 4) of a wide range of degree programmes within the Cardiff School of Management, Cardiff School of Sport & Health Sciences and Cardiff School of Technologies. It also provides an opportunity to widen access for students whose qualifications are not appropriate for normal entry onto a degree course and who might have been out of education for a time but have relevant work experience. It will provide a foundation of core knowledge that students on successful completion can apply to their chosen future degree programmes. We welcome students with a broad range of backgrounds and experiences, including:

• those who are uncertain which subject they'd like to specialise in

• those who don't have the right combination of subjects for direct entry into Year 1
