Our BSc Agricultural Business Management with International Foundation Year course will enable you to become a successful manager or consultant within the agricultural sector.

This programme is designed for international students. If you want to study agriculture at a British university but don’t have the correct qualifications, our four-year BSc Agricultural Business Management with International Foundation Year programme enables you to undertake an undergraduate agricultural business management degree.

You will complete a foundation year (called Year 0) before progressing onto our three-year BSc Agricultural Business Management degree. This means you can apply for a single four-year visa that covers the whole duration of your studies.

The foundation year is designed to equip you with the subject-specific and general study skills needed to cope with the demands of undergraduate study. Our high-quality teaching is geared towards the needs of students from a wide range of educational backgrounds.

For more information, visit the International Foundation Programme website.
