The new foundation degree in archaeological practice at Plymouth
The new Foundation Degree in Archaeological Practice is the first in the UK to give students the opportunity to achieve the UK's new Qualification in Archaeological Practice.
Foundation Degrees were set up by the UK Government in 2000 to bring vocational qualifications at degree level to people of all ages. Currently there are over 60,000 students studying for a Foundation Degree in the UK.
Essentially a Foundation Degree is two thirds of a 'normal' degree: it takes two years - and you can, if you wish, progress to a third year with the University of Plymouth (Truro College) to complete a full degree. After two years you can write FdSc after your name, and after one further year you can write BA (Hons) or BSc (Hons) after your name as well!
You can find more details of the Foundation Degree in Archaeological Practice on this website. Follow the link to FD Archaeological Practice.
