About Fndcert International Foundation Programme (computing And Games) in University of Bolton

Course Details

Our International Foundation Programme (Computing and Games) is designed to build a solid base of knowledge in key subject topics, help you develop your language and academic skills and introduce you to a new study culture. This means providing you with teaching that’s interactive, and has a strong focus on communication and group working. This way, you don’t just learn from your tutors, but also from your fellow students as you collaborate and support each other’s progress.

Studying in a foreign country is a great opportunity, and can be a really positive life-changing experience. It can be a challenge too, so we’re here to provide you with wide-ranging support and encouragement to help you make the most of your time living and studying in what might be a whole new cultural experience, and an academic approach you’re not familiar with.

This course covers the key areas from the first year of a computing and games undergraduate degree, so if you complete it successfully, you’ll be ready to consider full undergraduate study – having familiarised yourself with the academic language and study skills required.
