This course is open for Clearing applications.
Want to top up your credits from a previous course, such as a Higher National Diploma or a foundation degree?

The course takes place over one year. There’s also an optional placement year which you’ll complete at the end if you choose it. The placement is a great way to put your new knowledge to use – and you might even get a permanent position out of it.
As you will study with other students from a wide range of backgrounds, we’ve designed the content to get everyone up to speed before moving on to more specialist topics. Your core modules will cover the subjects you need to know to succeed in this sector. Your optional modules are your opportunity to personalise the course content to your interests.
Many of your classes will teach you practical skills you’ll use in your career. You’ll also learn about wider industry issues so you can be an informed and valuable asset to any future employer.
