    Program Overview

    What the University of Aberdeen says about their program:
    "Covering a broad range of subjects all designed to help you learn more about the world, social sciences and humanities have been studied for thousands years and have helped to shape society.


    Choose an Undergraduate Foundation Programme in Humanities, Law and Social Science and progress into the second year of degree study at the University of Aberdeen with exception of the LLB programmes which offer first year entry only. Based in the International Study Centre at the heart of the University campus, this three-term programme allows you to graduate in the typical four years of a Scottish degree (some exceptions apply, see below).


    The three terms you spend with us at the International Study Centre will introduce you to the Scottish education system. You will study modules approved by the University of Aberdeen, with additional English language classes designed to help you succeed on your degree. This pathway is divided into three subject routes, each with their own designated and elective modules, as well as core modules studied by all."
