2-Semester Pathway - International Foundation Year - Business, Film and Media - Transfer to Bachelor of Arts (Honours) - Geography

Program Description This program consists of a pathway program offered by StudyGroup at the International Study Centre at the University of Sussex followed by entry into a university program offered at the University of Sussex. In your International Foundation Year, you will study courses related to your intended field of study alongside English to develop and enhance your skills as a student. Advancement into your intended program depends upon the successful completion of the pathway program.

The International Foundation Year in Business, Media and Social Sciences will familiarize you with a wide area of study for your intended degree. You will develop your critical thinking skills, creativity, analytical and team working skills, providing you with the most crucial skills required as a successful graduate.

You'll cover a truly global range of issues, taught by experts. From migration and development, to conflict, inequality, geomorphology and climate change adaptation, we'll guide you as you develop your own sets of interests and expertise.

We also have an excellent choice of global field-trip destinations – recent trips include the Mojave Desert, Dubai, China and Greece. Even when you’re working closer to home, our setting – Brighton and the South Downs National Park – means you’ll learn both inside and outside the classroom.

Alongside your studies, get involved with the student-led prize-winning GeogSoc. It’s one of the largest societies on campus. They organise social events, trips abroad, talks from guest speakers as well as providing peer support.
