Description
The Foundation Degree was written with employers to meet the needs of the industry. It is a work based qualification and uses your employment as the basis for knowledge development. This enables the learner to achieve a higher level qualification whilst staying in the workplace.
The Programme has two start dates: September and February and is delivered across two campuses: The University of Winchester Campus at Chute House in Basingstoke and Basingstoke College of Further Education. The Foundation Degree is studied part-time and can be achieved between 2 - 6 years but students usually commit to complete the degree over 3 years.
The programme is offered on Tuesday or Thursday evenings and/or Monday daytime. Attendance depends on whether modules are undertaken singularly or more than one at a time.
