Applied Community & Social Care Studies (Foundation Entry), BA (Hons)

About

If you want to study community and social care studies at university level but dont have the formal qualifications, this foundation entry degree is for you. Successfully complete it and youll be guaranteed a place on the BA (Hons) Applied Community and Social Care Studies degree.

Youll also have the opportunity to progress onto one of three other degree programmes: BA (Hons) Children, Schools and Families; Foundation Degree Community Leadership (followed by a third year top-up degree); or BA (Hons) Social Work (subject to successful interview).

Youll gain the communication, study and information management skills you need to study at degree level while exploring a broad range of social science and welfare-related subjects, including understanding individuals, families and community.

We have strong links with employers and agencies, providing access to an excellent range of guest speakers which are embedded in the programme. This enables you to gain the experience of social care and community-based services and project development, and to link the classroom learning with real-world delivery.

Excellent student support from the foundation entry course team and the Universitys wider support services.
Outstanding student satisfaction, and part of a social work division that's ranked 4th in the UK by the Guardian University Guide, 2021.
Guided opportunities to access structured work experience via our own Central for Volunteering in Community Leadership (CVCL).
