Foundation Year in Sport

Designed for students who do not yet meet the entry requirements for degree-level study, the Foundation Year in Sport at Middlesex University London serves as a preparatory route into BSc programmes in Sport and Exercise Science and Sport Rehabilitation. Covering modules in Integrated Sport Science, Practical Sport Science, academic writing and research skills, and Foundation Mathematics, the course builds the scientific knowledge, communication abilities, and mathematical grounding needed for degree-level progression. It suits school leavers with 40–64 UCAS points, those returning to education, or anyone seeking a structured bridge into higher study.

The programme is delivered full-time on Middlesex's Hendon campus over one year, combining 12 hours of weekly face-to-face classes with substantial independent study. It is taught by an experienced team and draws on partnerships with organisations such as Tottenham Hotspur Football Club and Saracens Rugby Club. Successful completion leads directly onto a three-year BSc degree, and graduates of those subsequent degrees can work towards British Association of Sport and Exercise Sciences (BASES) accreditation.
