The International Study Centre (ISC) offers degree preparation courses to empower international students who do not yet qualify for direct entry to undergraduate or postgraduate degrees at the University of Huddersfield. Degree preparation courses help international students overcome the challenges of studying at an English university by building a strong academic foundation, English language and study skills.
Joining the ISC is the best way to get a place at the University if you currently do not meet entry requirements. Once on the degree preparation course, students only need to achieve required grades before continuing to do their degree. To make this possible, ISC tutors provide the highest levels of academic monitoring and support to each and every student. ISC graduates will improve their academic and English language skills and learn to balance play and study time, making them more likely to succeed in their degree studies.
Prospective students need to apply as soon as possible for 2010 entry. Degree preparation courses available this September are listed below. Select a course to view details and to apply.
