Foundation Program in Science
“Prepare for global success with our internationally recognized Foundation Programme in Science, your gateway to advanced academic and career opportunities.”
Overview
This is the foundation programme credit rated by the Edinburgh Napier University that serves students
as an alternative entry pathway to the first year of undergraduate programme. The succussful
completion of this programme allows students with O/Levels to enter into the degree programme.
Moreover, the foundation programme is as comprehensive as Advanced Level, with more lab-based
approach for learning process. This programme is approved by the Scottish Credit Qualification
Frameworks (SCQF) and has a total of 180 credits.
Awarding Body and Credit Rating
This program is awarded by the Spectrum Institute of Science and Technology and credit rated by Edinburgh Napier University. The Foundation programme in Science is credit rated at the Level 7 of the Scottish Credit and Qualifications Framework (SCQF).
This frame work established to ensure that the quality and integrity of the SCQF is maintained at all times and that the benefits of using the Framework are fully promoted to all stakeholders across Scotland and beyond. (learn more – scqf.org.uk )
STUDENT TESTIMONIALS
I had an easy and smooth transition from an Ordinary level qualification to the first year of the BSc. Hons Degree program by joining the Foundation Program in Science offered by SIST. It was flexible and easily adaptable since it did not solely depend on your aptitude for studies but encouraged your intellectualness, creativity and gave us the practical glimpse of all what was learned.
