Program Overview

The International Foundation Year is a university preparation programme designed to improve your English language and academic skills. The pathway programme will help you transition into university learning.

After successful completion, providing you meet the entry requirements, you can progress to the first year of your undergraduate degree at the University. The skills you develop mean you can achieve success in all your ventures; in your degree, in your career and in the world. In 2023, 94% of students who completed their International Foundation Year at the University of Sussex International Study Centre were offered a place at the University of Sussex.

Who is this programme for?

The University of Sussex International Foundation Year in Business, Humanities, Science and Engineering is suitable for students who do not meet the entry requirements for direct entry to an undergraduate degree at Sussex or who would like some extra support.

You will study a combination of core and subject-specific modules that focus on teaching you the English language, study skills, employability and academic areas most relevant to your chosen degree at Sussex. The teaching styles on this course mirror those at the University, so you will be familiar with Sussex's learning styles before you even start your degree.

Leading to: Theoretical Physics BSc (Hons)

If you want to study fundamental physics and its underlying mathematical principles, this course is for you.

You’ll explore the most recent theoretical advances in atomic, condensed-state, nuclear and particle physics. In your final year, you’ll join our teams and research fundamental questions, such as:

  • What is the origin of the masses of the known elementary particles?
  • What is the quantum theory of gravitation?
  • How did an asymmetry between matter and antimatter develop in the early universe?
  • How can we test these ideas at experiments, such as the Large Hadron Collider, or the Planck Satellite?

You’ll be part of a close community – our lively Physics Society arranges regular social events. Our building is a real hub of activity. Outside the classroom, you can study or catch up with your friends in our popular student spaces.
