Hardware-aware computing after Year Zero is the practical reading of the BEng (Hons) Computer Engineering with Foundation Year. Creek Road in Greenwich hosts full-time weekday teaching for eligible UK students who need that preparatory undergraduate stage. Award type BEng signals an engineering framing rather than a BSc Computer Science (Networking) endorsement on a neighbouring page. Category tags include both Computing and Engineering. Year Zero expectations include five GCSEs at grades A*–C, assessed case by case. AF Education gives UK home students free help with the application and with Student Finance England. Computer engineering after Year Zero differs from networking-endorsed computer science foundation awards at the same campus.

About BEng (Hons) Computer Engineering with Foundation Year
University of Greenwich International College lists BEng (Hons) Computer Engineering with Foundation Year as an full-time weekday bachelor's at the Greenwich campus in London (Bounty House, Creek Road, SE8 3DE). AF Education categorises it under Computing and Engineering.
Computer engineering in the award title points to study bridging computing and engineering themes at a high level, with a foundation year named for applicants who need a preparatory undergraduate stage first.
Among UGIC engineering foundation routes, keep this computer engineering record separate from electrical and electronic engineering and from mechanical engineering elsewhere on our site. AF Education can help you compare those titles and raise Student Finance England questions appropriate to foundation-year undergraduate study — guidance only, never a funding guarantee.
Greenwich riverside delivery is the only campus for this course. If computer engineering with a foundation year is the shortlist keyword you care about, use this Active ID rather than a general computing or non-foundation engineering page, then confirm intake timing with an adviser using official provider materials.
