About the course

Our foundation courses are integrated with an honours degree, enabling you to spend a year developing the knowledge and skills needed before you start your degree with us. They are a great opportunity if you do not have the required A-levels or equivalent qualification, are changing career or returning to study.

　　As well as gaining academic knowledge of the principles of business and law, you'll explore the fundamentals of applied numeracy and data handling, life skills, citizenship and how to prepare yourself for studying your honours degree at Brighton.

　　Successful completion of the foundation means that you can continue your studies with us by choosing to progress to one of our accounting, finance or economics degrees (you'll find them listed on this page). The course team will help you to decide which degree is best for you.
