Core computing without a narrow endorsement — that is what the BSc (Hons) Computer Science with Foundation Year offers at University of Greenwich International College’s Greenwich teaching site on Creek Road. Sibling courses cover cybersecurity, data science, networking and games; this title is the general computer science foundation-year option. Career changers who need a preparatory undergraduate year before honours modules often start here. Delivery is full-time across weekdays, and January 2027 is currently an upcoming intake. When you are ready, AF Education can check Student Finance England rules with you as an England-resident home student, free of charge.

Who this course is for
Choose this core computer science route if you want a broad computing foundation rather than an AI, games or cybersecurity endorsement, and you need a foundation year first. It suits returners rebuilding technical confidence.
Entry routes for mature students
The foundation year supports applicants who need preparatory study before Level 4 computer science. AF Education will confirm current entry evidence for the International College pathway.
Funding with Student Finance England

How often you study
Typical full-time study with these providers is usually 1 to 2 campus days a week, around 2 to 4 hours per day, so many students work alongside their course. Timetables vary by course and campus — always confirm your timetable before you enrol. Weekday full-time study is listed at the Greenwich London campus.
Career and progression
A core computer science degree supports graduate pathways into software, IT support-to-development progression or further specialist study. Exact stacks and roles depend on modules and experience. AF Education does not guarantee employment.

About BSc (Hons) Computer Science with Foundation Year
University of Greenwich International College lists a BSc (Hons) Computer Science with Foundation Year (partner: OIEG). Study is full-time weekday at the Greenwich campus in London (Bounty House, Creek Road, SE8 3DE).
This is the core computer science foundation-year record, distinct from the cybersecurity, data science, networking, and games endorsements also listed under UGIC computing. A foundation year suits applicants who need preparatory undergraduate study before the honours stages, including many career changers and returners to education.
Greenwich is the teaching location. AF Education advisers can help you decide whether the core computer science title or a specialised sibling fits better, and can explain how to check Student Finance England eligibility using official rules for your circumstances — without promising a particular loan outcome.
If you already know you want Computer Science named plainly — not cybersecurity, data science, networking, or games — this foundation-year ID is the matching UGIC pin to discuss next. Confirm which intake is open before you submit an application pack.
