Foundation (FdSc) degrees
 
     
 

You may be able to start a Foundation Degree using your High School Diploma. Foundation degrees are new qualifications designed to provide you with the specialist technical knowledge and skills you will need for jobs at associate professional and higher technician level. They are two-year programmes and include 300 hours of work experience with a local employer. After completing a foundation degree, you can top up to a full BSc (Hons) Degree with only one more year of study.

Foundation degrees are offered in two subjects: e-Commerce and Computing.

 
     
  Foundation Degree in e-Commerce  
     
 

If you are interested in the World Wide Web and its use, this course could be for you.
Many organisations use 'dotcom' and e-Commerce techniques. These require a good understanding of the web itself, along with marketing and finance skills. By the end of the course you will be able to design and implement a simple e-commerce system including the network, website and database.

The first year includes 12 units covering topics such as design for the internet, computer systems and networks, the use of software such as PhotoShop and Dreamweaver, further programming design concepts and marketing. There are also core units common to all Foundation Degrees; these will help you develop your personal and work related skills. There will also be work experience.

The second year comprises 10 units (two doubles) including e-commerce operation, information security and networking skills alongside further web design and the integrating of relational databases (such as Oracle) to handle internet transactions. The core units this year will develop accounting skills, multimedia for work performance and personal development, alongside further work experience.

 
     
Foundation Degree in Computing  
     
  The structure of this new course will be similar to the Foundation Degree in E-Commerce but with more technical content. It also includes a strong element of work experience.
