About Bachelor of Science (Honours) - Health and Social Care (Foundation Year) (L504)
This Health and Social Care (Foundation Year) BSc degree is designed for those who want to progress their career in health and social care, but don’t meet the entry requirements for the undergraduate course. On completion of this four-year degree, students will graduate with the same award and title as students on the three-year health and social care course.
The foundation year will develop students' academic study skills, which will prepare them for successful further study at undergraduate level. In the subsequent three years, students will focus more on the issue and practices within health and social care, gaining practical skills that will allow them to enter management and leadership roles in the sector.
The London Metropolitan University's Health and Social Care (including foundation year) BSc encourages students to consider principles, knowledge, values and policies that underpin good health and social care practice and explore the formal and informal mechanisms required to promote good practice by individuals in the workforce.
Throughout this degree, there will be opportunities for students to work on their abilities outside of the classroom. London Metropolitan University offers a number of workshops to help students improve their academic skills, such as essay writing, and also increase their career prospects with workshops on interview and application practice. An academic tutor and mentor will be assigned to students and they will guide students through their time at the university, ensuring that they settle in and perform to the best of their ability.
The foundation year will be shared with students from different degree specialisms. This will be the perfect opportunity for students to explore different academic interests and work with students who have different perspectives on a wide range of topics within social professions and social sciences. During this year, students will focus on developing their academic and study skills that will enable them to take on the challenge of a degree with confidence. Students will also explore the importance of critical assessment, consider the importance of different views, and be guided through the process of researching, planning, drafting and proofreading their essay.
Students will take one specialised module that will introduce them to the study of health and social care, preparing them for the subsequent three years of their degree.
After the foundation year, students will join the others on the three-year degree and study the same content.
An International Bright Futures Scholarship in the amount of £3,000 will automatically be applied to eligible students with overseas fee status starting a degree with London Met in the 2024/25 academic year. This scholarship includes a tuition fee reduction for the duration of students' studies and is applicable to both undergraduate and postgraduate courses.
Tuition Deposit is £4,000 for all students excluding those from Punjab and Haryana for whom the deposit amount will remain at 50%
