4-Term Pathway - Extended Undergraduate Foundation Programme - Engineering and Sciences - Continue to Bachelor of Science (Honours) - Sport and Exercise Science

Prepare for a Bachelor’s in Sport & Exercise Science at London South Bank University. Join our 4-term Foundation Programme for international students!

Program Description This 4-term programme offers successful students guaranteed progression to London South Bank University. You will study your Foundation programme at the ONCampus LSBU Centre located at the heart of the London South Bank University campus. This is an extended programme that is available if you do not have the required English language level for the 3-term pathway. This programme lasts 4 terms and includes an English language module (ELPP) followed by 3 terms of Undergraduate Foundation Programme (UFP). This programme is designed to prepare international students, who have completed senior secondary education, for entry to undergraduate studies at London South Bank University. All students who successfully complete the UFP are guaranteed placement on a suitable programme of undergraduate study at London South Bank University. The UFP is set at level 3, which is equivalent to A-level standard in the UK. The year begins with an English language module and then the next three terms are divided into seven to eight teaching weeks and one examination week, and half a term of English language. On average, you will undertake 21 (and up to 25) hours of classroom-based study per week. English Language forms up to six hours of your timetable, is compulsory for students who are below the required level for progression, and will be integrated into the teaching of academic subjects as well as being taught separately if you need additional support. Students who are at or above the required English level for progression are likely to follow a reduced timetable. Progress to Bachelor of Science (Honours) - Sport and Exercise Science To work in sport, you need to understand how the human body works. By taking this course, you’ll develop as an interdisciplinary sport and exercise scientist who understands that athletic success is not based on any single factor – and that will equip you to create strategies that work. Physiology, biomechanics, psychology and nutrition – you’ll cover it all. You’ll also have the opportunity to gain coaching awards and fitness qualifications by taking vocational training courses. On this course you’ll gain the scientific knowledge and develop the skills that will help you maximise potential for success in all kinds of athletes. You’ll take part in practical activities to study the science behind exercise and sport performance, including physiology, biomechanics, psychology and nutrition. You’ll also have the opportunity to gain coaching awards and fitness qualifications by taking vocational training courses.
