Foundation programme (pre-undergraduate courses)

This article is about pre-undergraduate courses. For the course for junior medical doctors, see Foundation Programme (United Kingdom medical education).

A foundation programme (also referred to as foundation program, foundation year, foundation year programme or foundation year program) is a one-year introductory, pre-undergraduate course that prepares students for entry into a full multi-year degree curriculum and is offered by many universities in the Commonwealth of Nations and elsewhere. These programmes may be intended for students not yet in a degree program or may form part of a specific degree course. Some programmes are designed specifically for either domestic or international students.
