Program Overview

The Foundation in Health and Science offers a bridge between your existing academic/English level and Year One of a UK undergraduate degree. Complete two semesters of this programme and progress seamlessly into first year of your chosen degree in a huge variety of health and science related degrees.

Progression from Foundation

This foundation programme leads into over 80 health and science related degrees at Keele University.

This programme offers streamlined progression into degrees including Life Sciences, Nursing, Biology and Chemistry, across three academic schools at Keele University. Opportunities for graduates in this area are vast, with global healthcare in the spotlight, and a growing demand for these specialist skillsets.

Leading to Bachelor of Science (Hons) in Astrophysics and Chemistry

Choosing our combined honours in Astrophysics and Chemistry will help you develop skills and experience in two engaging and exciting subjects.

In chemistry, you will learn that the subject is essential to modern life, from the technology that we use to how we treat illnesses. As such, it offers a wide variety of career opportunities in many fields from pharmaceuticals and food technology, to forensic science and education.

This course will provide you with a solid grounding in the underpinning theory of both subject areas with plenty of hands-on practical experience in Keele's state-of-the-art laboratories and opportunities to personalise your learning by choosing from a range of optional modules.

Astrophysics equips you with the quantitative, analytic and communication skills needed for analysing data and solving problems, which are prized by employers. The programme is underpinned by a core physics curriculum as set out by the Institute of Physics. This includes, for example, the fundamentals of classical and quantum mechanics, electromagnetism, optics and solid state physics, together with the mathematics used to describe them. Students on this combined honours programme have the opportunity to learn about astronomical techniques and use our own observatory here at Keele.
