Our BSc (Hons) Fire & Leadership Studies foundation year will equip you with essential academic skills for degree-level study. This pathway is designed for students who have the ability to study for a degree, but don’t have the necessary formal qualifications to enter their chosen Honours degree programme.
You'll cover core topics like basic maths, communication, analytical thinking, and an introduction to engineering and fire safety principles. This will provide a strong foundation for your chosen route of study in engineering.
Once you successfully progress onto the BSc (Hons) Fire & Leadership Studies course, you will learn about fire service operations, leadership, fire science, risk management, and business. You’ll also receive hands-on training in using breathing equipment, rescuing people from car accidents, and providing trauma care. This training will help you prepare for a career in the fire and rescue service.
