Program Description
This program consists of a pathway program offered by StudyGroup at the Leeds Beckett University International Study Centre. After completing the pathway, students will progress into a program at Leeds Beckett University. In an international foundation year students will study courses related to their intended field of study alongside English to develop and enhance their skills as a student. Advancement into their intended program depends upon successful completion of the pathway program.
This International Foundation Year provides the subject knowledge in sciences and mathematics, as well as the English language skills necessary for success in an undergraduate program at Leeds Beckett University. Once a student completes this course they will be suitable for progression options in areas such as computing, biomedical sciences and civil engineering.
After completing this pathway, students will transition to the BA English with Creative Writing program. Students will be taught by award-winning writers (poets, fiction writers and playwrights), and graduate with a recognized degree and employable skills in literary research and creative communications.
The final year offers a chance to work on an extended creative writing project, where you will collaborate with your peers to produce an anthology and plan a related launch event. In addition, you can choose from a range of other modules in literature, including Life Writing and Experimental Writing. Across three years, the course introduces you to a range of literary and writing contexts, enabling you to develop the ability to respond creatively to the world around you.
