International Year One in Engineering and Computing

If you’re looking to study an undergraduate degree in a science, technology, engineering or mathematics related subject, but could benefit from spending some time in a supportive, international environment, then our International Year One in Engineering and Computing is a great way for you to receive extra support whilst still graduating in the typical three years of an undergraduate degree.
