Overview
- A full-time academic programme which is comparable to studying the first year of a University of Exeter degree programme

- Six subject-specific pathways which prepare students for entry to the second year of a relevant undergraduate degree.
- Successful completion leads to the award of a Certificate of Higher Education and entry to Year 2 of a Business and Management, Business Economics, Accounting and Finance, Engineering, Mathematics with Business, or Psychology degree at the University of Exeter.
Over 150 different degrees through one single multi-disciplinary pathway, with standard and fast-track options available
Develop the key transferable skills needed for successful undergraduate study
Successful completion guarantees direct entry to a wide range of degree programmes at the University of Exeter
Course content
There are six subject pathways to choose from:
- Accounting and Finance
- Biosciences
- Engineering
- Management and Business Economics
- Mathematics with Accounting, Economics, Finance or Management
- Psychology
Around 80 per cent of the course is devoted to subject that relate directly to your proposed degree programme. All students take Academic English Language and Study Skills within the context of your academic discipline, which accounts for approximately 20 per cent of classes, and covers reading, writing, listening and speaking.
The International Year One is suitable for international students who have studied A levels, International Baccalaureate, a recognised Foundation programme or an international equivalent.
The programme lasts for three terms or approximately nine months and has intakes in both September and January.
Successful completion of the International Year One programme (subject to achieving the specified grades for progression) offers direct entry to Year 2 of a select number of undergraduate degree programmes offered by the University of Exeter Business School, the College of Engineering, Mathematics and Physical Sciences or the College of Life and Environmental Sciences.

Students with less than IELTS 5.0 can enrol on an INTO Academic English course for an appropriate period – see the INTO website for further details.
Learning and teaching
Teaching is delivered through a range of methods including lectures, seminars, academic tutorials and, where appropriate, laboratory classes. The programmes have also been designed to develop the key transferable skills needed for successful undergraduate study.
Assessment
Students are assessed by a combination of exams, tests and coursework assignments, which might include essays, presentations, problem solving exercises, reports and research projects. Modules in academic subjects are assessed at the end of each semester but English language assessment takes place predominantly at the end of the programme.
Grades from the programme do not count towards a final degree but help the University assess students’ abilities in their chosen field of study.
