Program details

Overview

This two-year engineering foundation degree is a joint effort between Belfast Met and Queen's University Belfast, so students are registered at both. They receive the same benefits that the university gives its other undergraduates. Applications go through UCAS with the code H302. Vacancies sometimes remain during the confirmation and clearing period in August, and candidates who meet the entry criteria may contact the university's admissions and access team to ask whether any places are free. As with most higher education provision, the course is looked at again periodically and details can change. Anyone thinking of applying should look up the latest information first so that they decide using accurate facts. Studying at two institutions gives learners access to the facilities and support of each.
