International Foundation in Management leading to BA Business and Management Foundation

**Please note: This course is for international students only. Applications can only be made through International Admissions**<br/>The International Foundation in Management leading to various pathways is a one year full-time programme that aims to develop both English language and academic skills to aid a successful progression to an intended undergraduate degree course. It is intended for those students whose first language is not English but can provide evidence of English language of at least an IELTS 6.0 standard (or equivalence).<br/><br/>This programme provides a common route of study enabling students on successful completion to access the first year (Level 4) of a wide range of degree programmes within Cardiff School of Management, Cardiff School of Sport & Health Sciences and Cardiff School of Technologies. The international students will benefit from two modules being taught by the English Language Training Centre (ELTC) academics who will provide support with English language and study skills. <br/><br/>It also provides an opportunity to widen access for students whose qualifications are not appropriate for normal entry onto a degree course and who might have been out of education for a time but have relevant work experience. It will provide a foundation of core knowledge that students on successful completion can apply to their chosen future degree programme. We welcome students with a broad range of backgrounds and experiences, including:<br/>•those who are uncertain which subject theyd like to specialise in<br/><br/>•those who dont have the right combination of subjects for direct entry into Year 1<br/>•those who dont meet the expected requirements for direct entry into Year 1<br/>•those who are returning to education after some time away
