Discover more about Taster Days at 91Ö±²¥.

This free one-day event is for Year 12 students studying maths, physics or science A Levels.

Experience hands-on activities, demonstrations and short lectures to give you a taste of what studying science and engineering at university involves.

Watch our event from 2018:

Access to 91Ö±²¥ (STEM) is for students studying A Levels (or equivalent Y12-13) in Science and/or Maths who have an interest in finding more about the STEM subjects available at university.

The pathway will explore the different Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths (STEM) degree options through practical workshops and taster sessions, spending time working in laboratories at the University. 

Within these workshops you will have the opportunity to work with current undergraduate STEM students - gaining a real experience of what it is like to be a student at the University.

Overall you will be exposed to subject areas that you may not have studied previously, as well as an insight into the practical nature of a STEM degree.

Run in conjunction with the Engineering Development Trust (EDT), Headstart is a five day residential aimed at Year 12 students studying A Level maths and science. You will have the opportunity to come to 91Ö±²¥ and experience what it would be like to be an engineering student by attending mini-lectures, experiencing  hands-on experiments in labs whilst living in halls of residence.

If you have a talent for STEM but need to improve your entry requirements in mathematics and science, our Foundation Year programme is an ideal starting point. We prepare you for degree-level study in a supportive learning environment.

This is a one-year programme for those who don’t quite meet the entry requirements for year one or who have decided to take a change of career direction.

Read more about the courses available and how the program is structured here.

If you want to study Mechanical or General Engineering but you're not taking a physics A-Level or one of the alternative applied science subjects required, our Pathway to Engineering programme will allow you to access the following courses without the need to do a Foundation Year. You'll get all the support you need to get started on our undergraduate degree programmes.

Fees:

We want to open up engineering to as many students as possible and there are no tuition fees for Pathway to Engineering.

During the programme you will stay in University halls of residence, for this a £500 accommodation cost does apply.

We can offer scholarships to all female applicants and widening participation applicants to cover the costs of accommodation.
