If you don’t yet meet the academic requirements to start a physics degree our Foundation Year course is for you. It’s designed to fill gaps in your knowledge and provide you with the skills you'll need to continue on as an undergraduate.You’ll study core modules in physics and mathematics, and select from optional modules in biology, chemistry or computing, depending on your interests. On successful completion of your Foundation Year you'll be able to continue onto our BSc Physics course.We welcome mature students, students who have previously not studied science but who want to take a new direction in their career, and students who were disadvantaged during their secondary education. We’ll consider your application on a case-by case basis, and you’ll be interviewed before being offered a place on the course. You do not need to have AS or A2-level qualifications in order to apply.Physics is not only a fascinating discipline, but a highly regarded qualification too. Study at UEA and you’ll develop a deep curiosity about the workings of our universe and gain powerful scientific skills to employ in a huge range of areas, so you’ll leave as a highly employable graduate.**Course Structure**You will be assigned an adviser for your full-time Foundation Year.
