Foundation Studies
The UniSA Foundation Studies program is a new pathway to university study which replaces the Diploma in University Studies, as well as the Information Technology, Applied Science and Engineering, and Whyalla Bridging programs.
It is a one-year program, available full or part-time, on and/or off-campus. It is an excellent pathway for people who want to undertake study at a degree level but do not have the usual qualifications required for entry.
The program offers different study strands which prepare students for entry into undergraduate programs in the fields of Business; Health Sciences; Education, Arts and Social Sciences; and Information Technology, Engineering and the Environment.
UniSA Foundation Studies also develops the skills needed for successful tertiary study (organisation, academic reading and writing, information literacy, information technology, communication and group skills), and introduces students to study that will be relevant to their chosen future discipline.
