As an international student, you might need, or benefit from, a pathway course before you start to a degree. A pathway course is often necessary because of different education systems of UK and your home country. The International Foundation Year offered by INTO Group, is perfect for international students who do not meet the academic requirements. It'll boost your academic and language skills, and improve your subject knowledge, to the level needed for entry to a degree at the University of East Anglia

International Foundation in Life Sciences, Health Sciences and Pharmacy is a Four-term program offered by INTO Group. Prepare for entry to Year 1 of an undergraduate degree in pharmacy, health or life sciences at the University of East Anglia (UEA). You’ll participate in interactive, discussion-based classes and complete a research project to develop a strong understanding of issues in healthcare and life sciences.

Leading to:- Bachelor of Science (Hons) in Geography with a Placement Year

Delve into an exploration of the dynamic and ever-changing world we live in – from volcanoes and earthquakes to climate change, pollution and biodiversity loss.  

Our BSc Geography degree with a Placement Year covers both physical and human geography, focusing on the interactions between the natural environment and human society. You’ll have the opportunity to gain invaluable real-world industry experience to give your career a head start. 

At UEA, you’ll learn specialist theory in areas such as earth surface processes, meteorology, hydrology, population ecology and environmental economics. You’ll learn from world-leading researchers, and develop your skills across a range of specialisms – from geographical information systems to environmental policymaking, biogeography, international development, climate change, energy transitions and natural hazards. You’ll also take part in exciting national and international fieldwork trips to places such as Devon, Scotland, the Lake District and Spain.  

With lots of flexibility in module choice, you’ll learn key geographical concepts and explore today’s global environmental challenges, studying how our dynamic planet works. You’ll take part in seminars and team projects with other students, developing specialist analysis skills, and mastering geographical software. You’ll develop highly valued transferable skills, including critical thinking, data analysis, fieldwork, spatial visualisation, science communication, and social theories of change.  

Choice is at the heart of our BSc Geography degree. In classrooms, and on field courses, you'll develop a broad understanding of geographical issues, theories and how to apply them. In year one, you'll learn about the most pressing geographical, environmental and sustainability problems, whilst in years two and four, you'll choose from a range of specialisms including climate science, environmental policy, Earth resources, river catchment management, urban geography, biodiversity conservation, energy systems and environmental economics. You’ll enhance your studies and employability by spending year three on an industrial work placement, giving you hands-on experience. 

Most importantly, you’ll graduate with the skills to make a difference. The ability to work across the social, human and physical sciences is in high demand in both private and public sector graduate jobs, where you'll be able to provide real-world solutions to today’s challenges.
